I do hope you know everything about this video is illegal. I work for the FD and I also work as a Part time photographer...Big no no on the Youtube with Helmet Camera at a car accident. Just saying, I learned the hard way.

@ArmyRescue2 Not sure where you are getting your information from but this is not an illegal practice.

[Krukester]

@ArmyRescue2 I think it's only illegal if you actually show the victim.

[irons22man]

@Krukester If the incident can be seen be the general public standing at an accident scene, anything they can see, can be video taped. Even their faces. Anyone can be video taped and put on the internet if it can be seen by anyone in the public. This is not like giving out someone's medical history or personal information. Info from an accident report is public information. Hope that clears things up a little bit.

I dont think that person with the Flip Flops runs with the EMS Dept that was on the scene ? ? She might have been a RN or EMS person that was passing by??

[irons22man]

Not real sure who that was in the flip flops. I can't tell from the video and I was not on the scene.

[irons22man]

It was actually the Front Seat Passenger that was trapped. Yes she made it.

lol SURE, blame the EMS guys! lol Today we had a glancing

head-on, a maxi semi (doubles GVW120,000) of lumber vs. a Grand Prix.

We get on scene, fire getting ready to open the driver door. Intrussion on the door was approx 12-14 inches, in front of the A post, about 24 inches. Everyone was in full turnouts, head gear &eye protection EXCEPT the guy holding c spine thru the window. T shirt and blue gloves.I put my glasses & helmet on him.
