Thursday night on I-95 in Port Orange FL, 2 state troopers were struck by a passing car...both recived non-life threating injuries...Volusia County Eng. 12 was arriveing on scene, when a car traveling at an exessive rate of speed slammed into the rear of it...no FF or P.O. were hurt as the result of the wreck, but it was an eye opener to highway safety for us

Its not illegal...it happens all the time in the Airline industry...as well as the Airforce...if you dont have 20/20 or better, kiss the job goodbye unless you want corrective surgery

I would have to say for a small portion of westchesters departments stat flight is a vital tool that is abused. For my juristiction, as well as departments surounding us, there really is no reason statflight needs to be called unless there is an extensive extrication in progress, WCMC is a straight shot down the TSP...for some reason, our VAC is way to quick to jump the gun on calling statflight...the medics have even called them for a traumatic arrest in progress...go figure. p.s. im criticizing my own VAC at calls I was at...so dont yell monday morning quarterbacking

Its also almost impossible to use a AED with the new compression ratio...the timeing will be all off, and the AED will likely get confused. Has there been any date set when the AED's need to be updated by?

I've just been summoned for jury duty...anyway I can get out of if now?

just registered...cant wait to give it a try!

lil Rascals died last year, brakes gave out on the underhill hill and we had to ditch it...havent gotten around to correcting the problem yet

Our FD allows our members to respond to the scene, and normally does not cause problems. Like said before, if a car is in the way, it gets moved. We cover around 40 sq miles, and if you are on the other side of the district, there is no way you are makeing a truck.

i dont see em....

its up again? they closed it down and stricktly made it FDNY radio about 2 months ago

fixed

HA, thats like getting people to pull to the right and yield to us.

through 5 inch? or spraying it

even if it is a "paid driver" WHO CARES!!!! you'd have the best job in the world, driveing a fire engine or truck around all day. in my opinion "Freaken awesome"

In NJ, they have red triangles placed on the side of the building...quite useful when you think about it http://fdfriendly.com/subcategory_detail.asp?id=136 link for picture
