From the skid marks it looks like the came from the opposite side of the road. Probably went off the side and then overcorrected. Glad everyone's okay, but you gotta slow down!
Code 1 is Non-Emergency or no lights or sirens, and under the new Georgia Law is it illegal for EMS to respond with lights but no sirens which makes Code 2 emergency or full lights and sirens. Also many Depts have made it against policy to respond with lights only because of the accident hazard which would also make Code 2 the same for them. But Carroll County Dispatch codes only have 1 & 2 Some states will use Code 1 for Non-Emergent Code 2 for lights but no sirens and Code 3 for full emergency

Give the guy props for saying "You cannot miss a big red fire truck sitting off on the side of the road".
