Carlos rosario not always valid, on one of my departments engines there are floor pedals for both on each side and on our quint the horn is on the dash with a switch
Carlos rosario It's not always that way. Some just have the air horn pedal on the LTS side. Others have just a button, and some only the engineer can use the q and the horn. Others have a string to sound the horn on both sides
he sure does!! You can tell he doesnt fuck around too. he was hella concentrated the whole time not engaging in the passengers talk/laughs until the call was over that is. This is exactly what i would expect from a man driving a tank down the road with a mission, not to mention not letting the fellow tax payers down
I was a volunteer fireman for St.helens Oregon for seventeen years and I miss going code three with lights sirens and blowing the air horns. Sure how much nicer the firetruck are these days. I remember those days when we got to ride in the back of a firetruck
What I would do to tag along for the ride. I have so much respect for these guys. Keep up the good work and please let me know if civilians can ride shotgun.
I know in my department I’m not sure if it’s a law or for insurance reasons but civilians aren’t allowed in the apparatus while moving. I remember when I was just joining the fire department, they’d have me check pack and stuff but even when they had to move the truck to another side of the building or something they’d tell me to get out. Now the captain at that time was also a dick but yeah. Even when I was finally voted in I still had to ride with the chief to drills until I had my medical because if we got a call and something happened I wouldn’t be covered. So depends on where you live and who’s in charge of your department you might be able to get a ride along but during an actual call that’s highly unlikely.
Full face beards are not allowed in the UK. With positive pressure sets a seal doesn't matter as contaminants cannot enter the mask but without a seal air duration is reduced to leakage caused by a beard. You can have a moustache and you can have a goatee but a full face is a no-no.
@@lilcheif1133 I transferred out before my son joined my station as I just didn't want any form of conflict of interest as his watch commander. He had to work that station as he was a retained firefighter (since joined whole time) but I was a day crewing Sub Officer (now called Watch Manager and the equivalent of your Captain) and full time and could work any station. I decided I'd had enough of 48 hours full time plus 48 hours on call and went back to a simple 2-2-4 48 hour tour. I did wonder what it would be like to work with him but I don't regret the move.
Engine 5er volunteer departments don’t require it. These guys prolly came from home, doing stuff, and they did get a call. They don’t have time to go shave.
Rich B it’s required so the departments don’t get yelled at for liabilities. My dad is a career firefighter. He also volunteers, and he’s never had an issue masking up with a beard.
how fast can you control it? though personally i think this was a tad fast for a ladder truck going to a brush fire, but I'm not the driver and ultimately its up to him.
+Benjamin Roth some schools have diesel pumps there for buses and they sometimes allow FD's to fill rigs with them, as the gas money paid goes towards the school.
NOW thats one hell of a fire truck driver, he actually drives the truck to an emergency he dont baby it, as for the trucker on the highway you fuckin gmoron when you hear and see a fire truck coming up behind you you dont cut in front of it. love it tords the ending the fire truck driver was like we have momentum now lets see if we can pass him come on girl. love that he works the truck the truck dont work him. He had the turbo on that truck screaming.
Interstate 81, its sad that hearing this doesn't fucking surprise me. where I live people will drive like the speed limit is 90, there is absolutely no law enforcement on I-81

My two cents??? 30 plus years and over 3,000,000 miles been there done that seen that....Driver.... good job until end touching switches... your job is to drive, which you did very good until end. Co-driver.... your job everything but to drive... sirens, radio, situation awareness. All in all...... 98%.
another fire truck racing along with all the sirens and air horn with no one around. Really, another video for training for when and when not to use sirens.

Hell of a job driving!
When the Q is high and it has an echo off of everything then and only then is it done right!
Loved it!
there are foot pedals on the LT.s side theirs a horn pedal and federal q pedal im a Boston firefighter

The passenger is controlling the Q siren with his foot...
Craig Mc maybe. We don’t know that.
@@centralnewyorkresponses7887 siren are most likley foot pedals as well and air horn
@Dylan Rehm we never get in trouble for too much Q. Couple calls i’ve been on they really laid on it
Could listen to that C12 all day
Those guys who like to hold the Q at maximum all the time should watch this video.

And switching to a wail when they get on the freeway?
My dude knows his shit
All that amazing driving for a controlled burn lol, great driving wow!
Miss those days when I was a volunteer fireman captain for St.helens Oregon
When the fire truck driver wanted to be a grand prix racer when he grew up.
😁😁😁😁
That drive looks like he has muscles. It's like a muscular driving unity. Look at his arms though.
Thank you for your service 💯🇺🇸💯
10 miles per hour above the speed limit they were hauling ass
BackRode TV hell to the yes!!!!!!!
In texas they haul ass. And if you dont move, they will assist in moving you
elige brown that is very true. Especially in the DFW area
Lol
He has to get to a call so
One of the best drivers I've seen on all these videos!
Not a good Engineer. If you think so then your also an idiot. In my department no need to apply.
Wasn't there a famous O. Winston Link photo of the Buchanan Fire Department in the 1950's with a N&W steam locomotive in the background?
Holy warp speed lol. Fastest truck video yet
Hi love your videos and I hope you have a wonderful weekend and a wonderful week too
I love that steering wheel what is the model

What I would do to tag along for the ride. I have so much respect for these guys. Keep up the good work and please let me know if civilians can ride shotgun.
The age limit in the state of VA is 16 I don’t know it depends if the officer is nice or not!
I know in my department I’m not sure if it’s a law or for insurance reasons but civilians aren’t allowed in the apparatus while moving. I remember when I was just joining the fire department, they’d have me check pack and stuff but even when they had to move the truck to another side of the building or something they’d tell me to get out. Now the captain at that time was also a dick but yeah.

So depends on where you live and who’s in charge of your department you might be able to get a ride along but during an actual call that’s highly unlikely.
Civilians can not ride shotgun shotgun is for the navigator radio op and airhorn which is 99.9% of the time an officer
how does the one guy get away with his beard does your air mask get a good seal?
Vincent Caggiano was going to say something lol
I've not had any issues with a seal on mask
Yea, my dad says he doesn’t have a problem with sealing up without shaving, IDK why they make him shave for work. He’s a FF/Paramedic.
you are good fire people
Full face beards are not allowed in the UK. With positive pressure sets a seal doesn't matter as contaminants cannot enter the mask but without a seal air duration is reduced to leakage caused by a beard. You can have a moustache and you can have a goatee but a full face is a no-no.
I love watching your uploads, many thanks for sharing them!
90's era Sutphen? That's a great truck
I died laughing when they waved 😂 that is the rural fire department wave 😂 we waved the same way
Thanks for the ride along guys that was fun !!! 😊👍🚒
Seems like he's always driving and you're always up front on the Ladder. Lol. At 5:30 did you say "Go Dad, go?" Or am I just imagining things. Lol
Yeah pretty much cause we live close to the station. I said "you're good dad go" as we were at an intersection. haha
+Turner Griffin haha. Okay. I miss riding on the same truck as my dad. I moved so I left the company I was at and joined the one closer to my place.

twsbbl they were waving to a POV or a member
How does the officer have a beard 😞😒

@@centralnewyorkresponses7887 You got a Beard, you shouldn't be an officer, "Everybody go in, I'll sit here and run command"
I have no respect for ANY officer that has a beard, prove me wrong!!
Rich B it’s required so the departments don’t get yelled at for liabilities. My dad is a career firefighter. He also volunteers, and he’s never had an issue masking up with a beard.
Came here to say the same thing. You risk getting a good seal on your SCBA mask with facial hair. Thats FF 101.
7:05 that truck didn't stop for the fire truck he just passed it like the truck wasn't responding
As a semi truck driver you are better off getting over a lane and letting them pass. It's not easy to get up to or down from speed in a truck.
Lol
thank 4 the ride from pops 64 liberty ky
was the call cancelled
ismaeel mansoor no, the sirens are actually pretty annoying to listen to lol we shut ours off on the highway and use the wailer going by traffic
The Cat is just purring so sweetly
Man the distance they have to drive is crazy.
that is near m i use that enterstate all the time
When the driver is also your chief lmao
so. who and what controls the siren?
Usually the guy driving has a foot petal that winds the siren all the way up
@@limemonster2295 lol only took one year for the answer, Thanks!
Np
how fast are you allowed to go over the speed limit
how fast can you control it? though personally i think this was a tad fast for a ladder truck going to a brush fire, but I'm not the driver and ultimately its up to him.
My area only 10 over but our trucks are governed at 65. No ladder but our tankers are 2600 to 3200 gal.
Complete code 3 lights sirens is 10 over code 2 lights is 5 over and code one no lights no sirens is speed limit
Dang dudes hauling the mail with that ladder lol good video!
Ricky can drive!!!!! For real hell of a job brother!!!!!
They fuel up at a school?
I guess so
this is faster than the ambulance
hfdzz Brent no ambulances can go faster
@@centralnewyorkresponses7887 can..., But don't
I miss being on the fire department got 2 play with lights and sirens
Who's controlling the siren and horn? i hear it changing constantly but i see no one pressing any button?
foot controlled
correct.
Turner Griffin is the passenger or driver controlling the siren?
The Captain (In the passenger seat) is controlling the siren and airhorn with pedals at his feet.
wait. are you fucking serious? its foot controlled on a firetruck??
How long do you work and do you like your job?
Ryan Enos Pretty sure this is a volunteer department so no set shifts just show up when the pager trips
It the title it states in parentheses ride along
Cheese Gaming it’s a ride along for us. He is an actual volunteer firefighters.
It's the best job ever in the world.
The car in the opposite lane around 3:50-4:00 absolutely should've stopped. The level of incompetence of some drivers is tough to watch.
what is that button he keeps pushing at the top
+willie jones I kept trying to turn up the volume on the radio. lol
I thought I had to put your foot on the mechanical siren
On our engine, we have a momentary button for our Q siren with our emergency light switches and electronic siren.
oh
+Austin Rutledge yeah. But I think in this video they were turning the electronic siren on
is this in iowa
What do you mean getting fuel at the high school?
+Benjamin Roth some schools have diesel pumps there for buses and they sometimes allow FD's to fill rigs with them, as the gas money paid goes towards the school.
you are good fire people
That's a heavy truck and he handles it like a Corolla!
How difficult is it to get a truck license
That driver is a hell of a guy. Was it a fake call?
This was published on my dad's birthday
Buchanan Wv?
Virginia.
Ahh, i volunteer for a department in wv, was curious!
Awesome man.
Thats not a Firetruck, thats a Racetruck
Would love to ride in firetruck real fast. Helluva adrenaline rush. God bless firefighter men and women. 👍👋🔥🚒🚨.
Nice video keep up the good work you are doing
Country people lol. No traffic screaming Q
AJ Deere T680 You never know when there will be traffic around a corner
True but the road is seperated... At the same time your right because its more narrow and he's going fast
AJ Deere T680 gotta make an entrance for people pulling outta drive ways!
walter white driving?
NOW thats one hell of a fire truck driver, he actually drives the truck to an emergency he dont baby it, as for the trucker on the highway you fuckin gmoron when you hear and see a fire truck coming up behind you you dont cut in front of it. love it tords the ending the fire truck driver was like we have momentum now lets see if we can pass him come on girl. love that he works the truck the truck dont work him.

Could that be a Earnhardt driving? 🍺😝
Who’s controlling the sirens ?
Captain in the passenger seat. He has foot controlla on his side to controll all sirens.
Se observarem o carro é automático, como todos deveriam ser! Ir you see the car is automatic. All must be.
Why a ladder truck for a brush fire and to run code is not an emergency for a brush fire is crazy
