The tractor trailer seems to be empty and appears to be moving at about 45 mph... I would suggest that, when responding in a wet environment, the safety space between the accident scene and the response vehicle be increased by a few feet from now on.
The empty weight of the truck is about 31,000 pounds, but if we could recreate the same setting but use a fully loaded rig of 80,000 pounds, I believe there would be enough mass to push the firetruck into the accident.
@LeeChavezMusic probably tendin to an accident, and they did nothing wrong, they did everything right, thats EXACTLY why you park the apparatus like that
You have it right on the nose spikehornslayer64. I've been a Volunteer Firefighter for 31 years, a driver for about 25, and when we respond to any Interstate Highway call, the truck is replaceable, fire, ambulance and State PD come first!
