I get nervous just thinking of this incident. Much respect to all who operated on the scene. These wrong way crashes are getting way to frequent, Millwood had one in late March which was a near fatal. If you look at the car you can see why.... Millwood MVA 3-28-09

The Millwood Volunteer Fire Company recently had Traditions Training, LLC at their station for a weekend of training. With the arrival of the new Ladder 52 in Millwood the opportunity was greatly appreciated and useful. Not only did the guys from traditions training teach and show the techniques and strategies regarding truck co. they also brough tons of practical knowledge and experience. A link to their website is below with a video and pictures. I would like to greatly thank the guys from traditions training and highly reccommend them to anyone interested in sharpening up their skills. http://traditionstraining.com/blog/

RIP, May GOD be with his family and friends.

Saw squad 11 on what looked like a car fire on the Sprain Parkway recently......I know this doesnt answer your question, but i thought i would add it.......

The fire was 2-23-09 sometime early afternoon. Car was fully involved when neighbor reported the fire. When IC arrived he found extension into the garage and extending up the front of the house. The fire was knocked quickly which kept it from extending to the second floor. Millwood's 2251 2252 and 2253 all arrived within seconds of each other. E-248 was first arriving truck which stretched two lines, 1 to the car and 1 to the garage. E-247 picked up the hydrant and secured the water supply for E-248

I can not even believe I am reading this......Ron was one of those people you loved to be around and was honestly just a good person. This is an extremely sad reality check.......Will miss you greatly Ron....Thanks for giving me the priveledge of knowing you.

In a sole proprietorship and in a parnership the owner(s) are responsible. Since the court judgements have been made the personal belongings including his home and everything in it can be seized. If he claimed bankruptcy before the courts were involved in the lawsuits it would have been a slightly different issue. They can and probably will take everything from him unless he has the estimated 60000 something dollars laying around. The fact that his name is not written on there does not matter - he is listed as the owner of the company and he will be held accountable no matter what.

WOW -- Disgraceful....

Does anyone know where or how to find what Westchester Cnty or NYS has listed - the guidelines of what is necessary on a rig for it to be classified a certain way? EX: What does a truck need to be classified as a Ladder truck? (i know its more than just the ladder) ie Certain amt of grnd ladders What does a truck need to be a rescue, rescue engine, heavy rescue.....etc. ?

I saw one of pocantico hills' engines at a drill not too long ago and was wondering if anyone has information on it. It has the ford front and that is about all i know.......Any info is greatly appreciated.

Maybe his mom is his drug dealer....
