New video of Engine 162 taking the exit ramp into oncoming traffic to get to a 4 car MVC with a reported pin in: Engine 162 Responding to an Accident (AWESOME Driving) ua-cam.com/video/Tf1gWmuGEdQ/v-deo.html
What is it with you small-town hick fire departments and running the electronic and the Q at the same time? Are you super excited to be getting a call? Just got to make all the noise you can huh? Showing off for the the camera? I watch some of you small-town guys and half the time you're honking at nothing blasting both sirens, keeping the fucking Q peged the floor when there's nobody else on the damn road, what the hell? I call it the fireman billy mentality, you don't get much action so when you do it's fireman billy time... WEE WOO WEE WOO HERE I COME I'M MR SAVE YOU MAN, WEE WOO MAKING LOTS OF NOISE MAKING LOTS OF NOISE.
Cool vid, It is always awesome to see the look on peoples faces as you respond against traffic, especially in a situation like this when you have to hit a off ramp onto the highway. Great job.
Eh, a lot of departments in my state use Iamresponding,, but yeah, a lot of us still also use pagers where rural cell service isn't great. Rockin' the Minotor V (no playback sadly)
The men (and women) who drive fire appliances have awesome skills. I remember seeing one go past me and then round a roundabout. I do not think I could go round it in a (normal family) car over 20Mph. It went past well over 30, did not slow down, and left multiple black tyre marks behind. Not skid-marks,, as it was not skidding, just rubber stuck to the road. I remember thinking 'how fast? Successfully? In that! Respect!'
If this was in GTA V the minute the driver went onto the wrong lane all the cars would have been blaring their horns and purposefully trying to crash into you. Gotta love the realism of the game! But on a serious note, awesome video! That's some serious driving skill!
If you live in a town where they still sound the air horn at Town Hall when the tones drop, Press 1; Press 2 if they still do daily tone tests at 18:00/19:00; Press 3 if they do both tone and airhorn tests!
Not many units went to that call, considering it was an accident with entrapment. In my county an accident with a possible entrapment gets 2 engine's 2 special services (truck, tower, rescue), 1 medic (2 if the call is on the highway), 1 battalion, 1 EMS supervisor, and a command aide. Great video though!
saw an engine a few weeks ago miss the exit twice to get on the other side of the highway instead of doing this. must have sucked to be the people needing their help watching them drive by twice on the wrong side of the road
Here doing some research on how smooth of a ride these are. I plan on taking off the bed and making an RV out of it. My wife says I just want to drive around in a fire truck LOL. And she's not far off the mark lol.
1000hpHONDA And you will be responsible for the lives of your crew and the public when you hit a car, kill them and your crew.... hand your license in....
No in real life on my Ninja ZX-14R, custom turbo 220hp low boost. Supposed to be able to go 230mph but the quality of the roads are so bad to go over 200mph here.
Someone else noticed the "ghost" face smiling in the bottom corner of the driver's-side windshield at 2:48...I don't think it is the reflection of someone sitting right behind the driver...weird!
Ya'll engines are slooooow. But great decision to take the off ramp. Here in the UK the police would fine them for it! Despite the sirens and lights, emergency vehicles would only be allow to go against the flow of traffic under Police instruction and escort, they can't do it alone like in this clip, regardless how many minutes and lives it may save. That and some namby pamby road user would bitterly complain.
I hope they wasn't to seriously hurt it looks like the car would keep going if the guard rail wasn't there and luckily no one t-boned the car around 70 mph
For people not bothered to know...HIPPA regulations prevent firefighter, cops, medics from revealing the identity of victims, that is why the video blurs out. This is also a 'all hands on deck' situation. Doesn't matter if they are one minute away or fifteen, if they are called they have to go. "They're driving to fast." ...chances are they are better drivers than you and I damn well know if your kid was on a wrecked bus you wouldn't care then about how fast the rig was moving.
Seems like a weird design to not have a ramp on both directions. But it does appear there is literally only one ramp....not even a ramp to go back on to the highway from the exit he used and just pull a u-turn.
We have a few in Chicago where you can only get off on one side or the other.....just never seen 1 off ramp and nothing else.....especially in an area that looks like there is plenty of room to build. Wonder if the fire department has every brought this up to the city
Strike that....at 2:11 they pulled a u-turn.....you can see the on-ramp ahead of them. plus here is a layout www.google.com/maps/place/Leesville+Rd+%26+I-540,+Raleigh,+NC/@35.9112329,-78.729884,17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x89acf9e40d222c71:0x24e4ea007b17f3b4!8m2!3d35.9109105!4d-78.7318978 My guess is that they wanted to get behind the crash. I notice on google maps there are turn arounds on both sides of the bridge but I don't see them in the video. I'm guessing they put them in later for issues like this.
Wow what state is that in? You can never get away with that New Jersey no we would ever give you a damn inch to get through I wish we had a cow catcher on our trucks to push people
It's still amazes me the idiot people who do not pull over for emergency vehicles coming through. I understand if there is a lot of traffic and you can't move. But still.

I'm an old FF from the mid eighties. Thank you men, for all you do. Be safe.
Zachariah Marble lol all you do is wash engines and get my coffee.
Upload a vid
Cool vid, It is always awesome to see the look on peoples faces as you respond against traffic, especially in a situation like this when you have to hit a off ramp onto the highway. Great job.
AWESOME!!! Love that the traffic yield to you! Good Job to you all!!!!
"She didn't see you, that's why she ain't going."
Yeah, those big red fire trucks are so hard to see. 🙄
I think he meant the other person waving at her
Thank You. Y'all are Heroes.
On the off ramp! Loved it!!!
Great positioning and driving engineer and communications Captain. Nice response !!!!
automated Dispatching, I bet that really helps the dispatchers a lot......
So as soon as the pager tones at the beginning I jump, take my headphones off, and check mine....
I know right, it was sooo loud and only coming from the left, I though my printer messed up hahaha
804USAR same
LOL i did the same thing
You guys still use pagers?
Eh, a lot of departments in my state use Iamresponding,, but yeah, a lot of us still also use pagers where rural cell service isn't great. Rockin' the Minotor V (no playback sadly)
Ahh 2009. Good ole scanner days. The Radio Shack Pro-109 just came out :3
tell that chauffeur he can respond to any call anytime if i'm in trouble. need more like him.
Random video I click on and its the fire department literally 5 minutes from my house lol
Ciroc I thought there was a fly on my screen
thank you for everything that all the firefighters do for us. That's What I Call splitting traffic
Thanks for the support!
Just amazing even going on to an off ramp not becoming an emergency it self they are truly real life superheros
Thanks for the support!

I hate those computer voices for an alert ;-) Nice clip!
Civilian: "What would you do to save someone?"
Firefighter: "Drive the wrong way on a interstate with moving traffic..."
Civilian: "..."
Thanks for the support!
It's neat seeing from their perspective.
I Just Love the On Coming HW entrances with the Fire Trucks Gets Peoples Eyes Balling Lol
Glad you liked it! Here's another one I posted today: ua-cam.com/video/Tf1gWmuGEdQ/v-deo.html
If this was in GTA V the minute the driver went onto the wrong lane all the cars would have been blaring their horns and purposefully trying to crash into you. Gotta love the realism of the game! But on a serious note, awesome video! That's some serious driving skill!
And they would be screaming ''puta madre'' and hell would break loose.
Miguel 😂😂😂
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING
ua-cam.com/video/fMNo90uOseg/v-deo.html
indonesian firefighter Gta in real life
Good response and done safely! That's pretty awesome!
Zach Novosad That was probably the most unsafe response I've ever seen.
Zach Novosad hey
lilwedge9 they cleared every intersection very safely and they weren't speeding like crazy to the scene
Spectacular driving skills
Good call and safe driving. Best way to get there quickly.
If you live in a town where they still sound the air horn at Town Hall when the tones drop, Press 1;
Press 2 if they still do daily tone tests at 18:00/19:00;
Press 3 if they do both tone and airhorn tests!
1 2 3

Great video though!
The numbers send depend on whether they are men or boys
hldtrm that sounds like overkill to me??
Wow, what great resources, would love to have those where I am.
GOD Bless You ALL!!!!!
saw an engine a few weeks ago miss the exit twice to get on the other side of the highway instead of doing this. must have sucked to be the people needing their help watching them drive by twice on the wrong side of the road

Great video!!
The engineer is a really great driver....
I drive 30x that speed doing the same lane splitting and oncoming traffic driving.
1000hpHONDA the you are a reckless idiot..
1000hpHONDA And you will be responsible for the lives of your crew and the public when you hit a car, kill them and your crew.... hand your license in....
what video game are you doing that in? GTA?
No in real life on my Ninja ZX-14R, custom turbo 220hp low boost. Supposed to be able to go 230mph but the quality of the roads are so bad to go over 200mph here.
Amazing driving
Thanks for the support!
I like the roof light bar is the same on the dash
Someone else noticed the "ghost" face smiling in the bottom corner of the driver's-side windshield at 2:48...I don't think it is the reflection of someone sitting right behind the driver...weird!
Those american fire engines are absolute massive units.
Didn't know they have a real time light indicator (showing them which exact flashing light is on)
I would of loved to been a firefighter but I was born with a extremely rare phobia of fire
Great videos! Newly subscribed are u guys vollys or full timers?
Sounds like you guys use pedals for the Q and horn
That audio totally screwed me over when I had my headphones in.
God it would be so fun running red lights and displaying and flexing your superiority over bystanding cars.

3:00 Driving on the wrong side of the road too! GTA in real life *legally*!

This guy needs to apply the small pedal and keep stepping on it until he is on scene.
This was filmed in the early 90s

Good video
What engines are in the fire trucks in america
Andrew Dix some times a Cummins
Bish Games or a pierce dash..
KrazyKat O3 I could not think of that thanks
Bish Games yep..
Bish games thanks where i live they dont use them we use a swedish truck
I wish that the Q didn't have those covers over it. It sounds much better raw
I hope they wasn't to seriously hurt it looks like the car would keep going if the guard rail wasn't there and luckily no one t-boned the car around 70 mph
I did this on the way home one night and got a ticket :P
Hi - can we share your video on our page (ESH) please?
Of course, go right ahead
@@BMills16 thank you! We love your videos :-)
Is that flashing gizmo on the dash in sync with the light bar? Just curious.
God bless you Boys!!!! Go Cowboys!!!!!
Just out of curiosity why did you get rid of the video with music. That was a cool video but just wondering.
is this in Durham North Carolina
Raleigh, NC
B. Mills I live in Guilford county NC so I’m close to Raleigh
good driving bro =]
Jonathan, the version of this video with music is still up and can be found at ua-cam.com/video/hQGRB-Ginxg/v-deo.html
Thank you sir. For some reason I couldn't find it. Thanks again.
B. Mills can

Perfect!
Thanks for the support!
whoa that's gotta hurt! (george costanza)
Robbie thomas is here I'm back I'm a lew officer lol
Yes pull over and stop, even if you are the only car on the road
mychoclabwinston I'm happy that we don't have to pull over and stop, we only have to clear the path
An ambulance first? Round here it's usually fire truck first on scene!
Elliott some places have roving ambulances, kind of like police cars, so they were probably closer when they got the call.
What happened to the ending....?
The princess found the prince and they all lived happily ever after. :)
There are some jurisdictions where this is legal. This is *not* one of them.
SupaEMT134 it is now. 😂
Hey guys ,
I gotta question.
how many persons do have to be on one unit?
Moped hobby at least 3 on an engine
Bish Games oh thanks.
in germany its 6 actually.
and ya thx for ur answer.
What was the reason for going the wrong way on the highway?
I don't think there was an on ramp at that particular spot
Seems like a weird design to not have a ramp on both directions. But it does appear there is literally only one ramp....not even a ramp to go back on to the highway from the exit he used and just pull a u-turn.
It is weird. We have a few of them in Michigan which is what made me think of it.
We have a few in Chicago where you can only get off on one side or the other.....just never seen 1 off ramp and nothing else.....especially in an area that looks like there is plenty of room to build. Wonder if the fire department has every brought this up to the city
Strike that....at 2:11 they pulled a u-turn.....you can see the on-ramp ahead of them. plus here is a layout www.google.com/maps/place/Leesville+Rd+%26+I-540,+Raleigh,+NC/@35.9112329,-78.729884,17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x89acf9e40d222c71:0x24e4ea007b17f3b4!8m2!3d35.9109105!4d-78.7318978
My guess is that they wanted to get behind the crash. I notice on google maps there are turn arounds on both sides of the bridge but I don't see them in the video. I'm guessing they put them in later for issues like this.
That was pretty ninja
Who would dislike this video?!?! I guess if you don't like the fire department rescuing people then you won't mind when they don't rescue you!
David I Agree
XVIVX people got their own reasons why they dislike the video stop talking shit like this
Aye its my department
Was this filmed with a potato?
Am I the only one that noticed the ghost on the drivers windshield on the bottom right corner at 2:50😖
Chippah Roberts It’s a little difficult to spot but it was the reflection of the paper and the face was from the formation of the tree
Saw exactly what you were talking about. The face is on the tree just happened to look ghostly because of the reflection of the paper.
Chippah Roberts it wasnt a ghost lol reflection of paper lined up with gaps in the tree. Pretty wild though
That needs some turbo boost.
That was sweet
At my department, we call driving on the wrong side of the road “Suicide”
superb
The light show on the dash
I think that's the truck my dad drives
Really?
Wow what state is that in? You can never get away with that New Jersey no we would ever give you a damn inch to get through I wish we had a cow catcher on our trucks to push people
Raleigh, NC
Drivin in the suicide lane. Damnnnnn😂
nice vid 🙂
I've always wanted to be a firefighter
Did anybody else notice the school bus that just kept driving @ 1:40
Be careful be careful
Hell yeah!
Tight...
It's still amazes me the idiot people who do not pull over for emergency vehicles coming through. I understand if there is a lot of traffic and you can't move. But still.
Is it only me or does the engine seem very slow while driving?
That fire truck had to have been stolen because that’s how the driver drove it!
they didn't follow the purple line
Good job throw
(AWESOME Driving) = How to loose the exit (entrance) and delay 50 seconds
total badasses
WOW cool
Bad ass!!!
Sad!
🚒
For a emergency vehicle it doesn’t go very fast
giddy up! (kramer)
Guess they don't have dispatchers. All automated bullshit!
