Better if the trucks where entirely a single soiid colour: yellow. Coventry promoted this in the 60s. It was great, but we've adopted a less effective splotch of colours. At distance they just merge into the background. See coventry-yellow.blogspot.com/
The Saab/Scania fire engines 🚒 would make a great addition to fire departments across America and even small private institution fire brigades like Pepperdine University in Malibu, California USA 🇺🇸.
Jenna O234 we do have the Volvo commercial trucks (18-wheelers) on the roads here. So it wouldn’t be too tough an issue to have those fire engines made here in these USA 🇺🇸. It would give the big 3 (Seagrave, Pierce and E-1) a run for their money. California based Crown 👑 Motorcoach used to do fire engines 🚒 up until the 1980s and focused solely on their very popular school buses.
@@christophercotton9048 No, sorry. As l said it was a picture in a US Fire magazine about 19 years ago. Looked like a typical Euro fire truck. I tried Google but no luck. They have their own Volvo fire truck at their Virginia truck plant. I saw that on Google.
I was a retain FF in the west mids for around six years, and I have to say we had much more of a sense of urgency than a lot of these crews seem to have. (Unless this is purely for training purposes?)
As my instructor used to say "don't run but walk with a purpose" when you rush you have less time to complete your procedures, less time to think and form a action plan and more likely to forget/fail to complete tasks properly. The amount of times I used to get a bollocking for rushing by my Sub i've lost count
@@Autofleet4429 .... and that definitely isn't a Scania. A friend of mine is on the training staff at Lancashire FRS training centre, and he's also worked at Moreton-in-Marsh with their eclectic fleet of vehicles, so has worked with every make of fire engine in the country. He reckons back in the day Dodge, Ford, Bedford and Dennis were the dog's bollocks. Today he rates Leyland DAF and Volvo as great bases for fire appliances, reckons Scania and Mercedes are dogshit, and M.A.N. are just not fit for purpose. But to him, a firefighter of 30+ years, nothing, absolutely NOTHING compares to Dennis.
Silly question, but what's a "targeted response vehicle"? I mean, by its very nature all 999 responses are targeted, otherwise they'd just be vaguely driving around town, hoping to happen upon someone in need of police, fire, or ambulance.

That Scania's a beauty!
It is 😁
Great to see some Cleveland stuff at last!🎉🎉

The new Scania definitely looks smart; particularly the blues against white!
The look awesome right?!🤩
What a great fire engine that is
I love it 😍
Nice to see some local ones
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Great catches mate. I like the Cleveland trucks 😁
I live a few doors down from the Middlesbrough station never a dull day had a few specialised appliances there over last few weeks
Love ClevelandFRS get bunch! I had breakfast with them this time last year 👌🏻
And their trucks are boss 😁
Fire van was indicating right then went left wtf hahaha love the scania
At what point was he indicating right? Thats just the headlights flashing
@@jennao2348 0:37
@@simonsupersi2225 I assume he was going right around the roundabout after the camera was cut?
Correct Tom
Love the new Scania! Looks great with a white front, Glad Cleveland kept that design 😊
Great video mate, keep up the good work!👍
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the video! For me, it's between Cleveland and Shropshire for the best livery in the UK 🤔😍
@@dragonemergencyvideos North Wales have the best sirens
@@dragonemergencyvideos
It's gotta be Humberside for off the wall colour schemes 😉👌
@@residentelect Ooooh yes I forgot about them! Definitely Humberside😎
I particularly like the New Scania Fire Engine that was featured
Thanks for watching
Wow that Scania is so beautiful! Nice catch
Yeah it is 😊 Thanks for watching
Great video good to see the Sunderland tunrout as i live on that road 👍
Thanks! 😊
Nice playmobile sirene LOL
Splendid compilation mate! My favourites were the Dennis and the white-faced engines haha
Cheers mate! Cant beat a sabre! And the White ones do lool real unusual 🤩
Not exactly Steel River Blues but great none the less!
@2:30 Switches on the blues just for the video :)
They even showed me and Cobra around the station 😊
Great video as always :)
Thanks so much 😊
Looks great with the white front. If anything, it makes it more visible
Yeah I agree 👍😊

@@dagwould Actually the mixture of yellow and red makes it even more visible especifically because it's not a single color.
interesting color scheme on the scania. cool vid man!
Their really unique, but I love them! Thanks mate😊
Awesome video!!!
That was horrendous driving by that police van
Nice Video
Awesome Scania!
Thanks! It is
Oh damn I noticed Newcastle.
Yeah, some Sunderland too
Damn, Nice catch amazing truck too 👍
Thanks! I love the new scanias there 😊
Great catches
Why did those scania’s have a white front but all others have red
Not sure just the design

Don't think they make them in the states

Years ago l saw a pic of a Volvo fire truck used in the US. Somewhere in the Midwest I believe.
@@markfowler6330 do you remember where you saw it in the midwest?

Could be training or it could be that they already know it's a non-life threatening call out.
As my instructor used to say "don't run but walk with a purpose" when you rush you have less time to complete your procedures, less time to think and form a action plan and more likely to forget/fail to complete tasks properly.

Very Nice!
Thanks for watching 😊👍
Nice Video!
Thanks 😊
Looks like the Scania will make a great replacement for the old DENNIS appliaces.
Will still miss the Dennis trucks though 😪
Get real. There isn't an appliance on the planet that can replace a Dennis. Just ask any firefighter with time on a Dennis under their belt.
@@YelpBullhorn unfortunately Dennis don't make fire engines anymore so we will have to use the next best thing.

Good old boro
Nice vid

Good 😌 video
Thanks
Any idea what that dennis truck was doing? Strange seeing them about these days, especially without any ladders or a crew!
Driver training
@@dragonemergencyvideos ah yes of course!
Silly question, but what's a "targeted response vehicle"? I mean, by its very nature all 999 responses are targeted, otherwise they'd just be vaguely driving around town, hoping to happen upon someone in need of police, fire, or ambulance.
The Targeted Response Vehicle is staffed by 2 firefighters and responds to low level incidents such as grass or rubbish fires
Awesome
Thanks 😆
If only here in south Yorkshire they got new ones and made it keep the white, except the new 2015 and 16 reg have got rid of white 😣
Its a shame they didnt keep their old design. Sheffield and Doncaster still have white fronts though
What sort of incidents do the targeted response vehicle attend
It responds to low level incidents such as grass and rubbish fires.
Brill video Scalia in white lots good
Yeah it looks great! Thanks
5:24 Yellow color Mitsubishi truck is an ambulance？ You've got this in Singapore？
This is in The UK, not Singapore
Thank you. This is a surprise that japanese vehicle is used as an emergency vehicle in Europe.
Could you do west calder
I will if i go up North again sometime, but it's a long way for me from Cardiff
@@dragonemergencyvideos make sure it the right one check if there is a street called harburn drive
I don't think fire engines should have blue lights, like here in Russia. Red seems like it's meant for it.
Blue lights are much more effective than reds
Nice
Thanks
how is the dennis fire engine still working?
They're real workhorses, much more reliable than the new Scanias/Volvos
Why do sirens in the UK sound like they’re so loud that they are going to blow the speakers?
The louder the better! Gets people out of the way quicker
I think sirens in London were turned down
The newer ones are a lot quieter than they used to be
What does a "Targeted Response Vehicle" do?
That was going to be my question too.
The TRV is staffed by 2 firefighters and responds to low level incidents such as grass and rubbish fires.
@1.21 Driver training
Correct
ok
What's the first vehicle's function?
It responds to low level incidents such as grass and rubbish fires.
Nice movies but keep your mate out of the videos 😂😂😂
