Some states have a law, lights on siren on! 😂 You’re okay.

@@ghxstboy1111 name one state.

@@ghxstboy1111 still waiting for you to name a state.

They were actually quite a few miles away from their fire house. I would have to say that if they were at their fire house it would have been about five minutes or so

So you're saying he's wrong for not blowing thru red lights?

New York, Upstate specifically. Look at the plates on the cars, they are yellow.

Never take a chance you can't walk away from.

Pretty sure there were at a local Heart Run/Walk event a few town away from their own when they got the call.

They went to a neighbor town back them up at the fire alarm multiple alarm. This fire was not in their area of responsibility

I'm wondering if this wasn't a mutual Aid dispatch

its mutual aid on a MULTI alarm fire..many stations went

most...most people yield in upstate ny

In. New Jersey they legally have to pull over for us in our pov

How?

Smaller response area ? Ya think

read the title god... its not like their the first truck

Southern Railfan Productions shut up, if they were going slow they would have been there 20 to 30 minutes plus stopping. Now explain whats the point of going if it took that long after all that when they could just blow the horn so they can get to the emergency in a manageable time.

“What’s the point of going”? After all that reckless driving what exactly do you think the members contributed to the “emergency” when they arrived? Absolutely nothing. Do you know why? Because the “emergency” part of the incident was over long before they arrived. Ask yourself, If the situation was so desperate, and their arrival would make such a huge difference, why would the apparatus be blocked out of the scene? Shouldn’t all the other apparatus have been positioned out of the way so this rig could get right into the scene and be placed in service? If the members were so critical to the outcome, why would there be time to remove the camera and place it back in the cab? Shouldn’t the members be moving with that same urgency that was being used while responding? Why would the members exit the apparatus not prepared to work? The only work left to do would have been the same whether they arrived 15 minutes later or not. An extended response time, to a well involved fire, in a predominantly rural area that requires tankers for a water supply….. Add all that up and any member(s) with some fire ground experience and some common sense knows that there isn’t going to be much of an “emergency” left when they finally arrive. It sounds pretty harsh but that is the reality of volunteer firefighting, especially rural volunteer firefighting. It’s much smarter to operate the apparatus safely and efficiently than to become involved in an accident and create an even longer response time or worse, have members injured or possibly killed. Brotherhood remember?

That's what I want to know. As a Clinton rig, it should have been a 2-minute drive. Instead, they didn't pass by their own firehouse until 8 and a half minutes 08:25 And all the way from New York Mills. It would have been faster to come up the hills of Route 12. A good thing that the roads were all plowed and it looked like an early Sunday morning with very little traffic. Some of the other comments say this video is hard to watch and shows poor driving of the rig. I disagree. I think the engineer did a great job due to the conditions at the time of very little traffic. Being a single rig, the risks were minimal. If this truck were following another fire apparatus, the risks would have been far greater -- It is almost always the SECOND rig thru an intersection that gets whacked by other vehicles and much more caution would have been warranted.

at the second set you know he wanted to take em out too

Pleased about that😂🤣

cone killer😁

Hopefully those cones didn’t mean the bridge was out....

I'm guessing upstate NY.

Clinton NY Hamilton College

Clinton NY

The person in charge of the horn must be someone's wife. From New York City.

In my opinion, I see a lot of side streets/driveways that people could come flying out of. Better safe than sorry.

The SIREN must be running regardless of traffic conditions. I believe it is a OSHA requirement but correct me if I'm wrong. You don't want to be in a car/SUV and get hit by a fire rig-trust me!

Jonas Surovec, your the smartest person posting here!

I guess pedestrians and kids running out into the streets needs no warning that a firetruck is hurtling towards them... Safety before sorry i always say.

well obviously he wasnt first due and there is no reason to be flying through a red light. And even though you have right away, you are not above the law you still have to obey all traffic laws

even volunteers don't have to use several sirens and horns if not necessary. I once lived and worked in a small village, where the ALS Emergency Ambulance had the same siren like the large fire trucks from the FD. During the night you always knew that it was the FD going down the road ... because they used their siren also on completly empty road at 2 AM, while the Ambulance went through a few minutes earlier without using any siren... Athough we have the right of way only by using both lights and sirens, we don't use the siren if not necessary

Treasurer Hamilton Branch Ypu still have to follow ALL traffic laws.

That's right
