Does any body know busy departments that allow ride alongs? Of within the area NY, CT, MA, NJ

I did a ride along with Danbury Fire Dept. Engine 22. I don't know if it has to be school related though. I was in high school at the time and I was doing a job shadow as part of a class. But it's worth a shot call Danbury FD headquarters. I don't remember who you need to talk to though

We used to allow them here in Newark. But that stopped on 9-11-01.

There is no where in CT that allows ride alongs that I know of. Most departments have stopped this due to insurance reasons, officially.

Unofficially is another topic and cannot be discussed here.

If this is what your doing talk to the chief of Rye FD. Its a media thing I am sure there is something they can do. I can't say what you will do or not do but I am sure they will be willing to help out.
