haha, awsome, one less asshole driver in the world. Yeild to emergency vehicles, or die. Sounds fair to me.

In the UK you are taught to treat all drivers as idiots and take things carefully, these things happen as people are too accustomed to the driving and dont drive defensively. I have seen drivers stop in front of the Emergency Vehicle like their brains cannot handle the situation, they panic. As the other guy said You are no good to anyone if you dont get to the shout (incident). Few people know that you may run a red light to make way for Emergency Vehicles just take the vehicle No 4 cameras

@SuperHamiltor I hope your house burns down cuz the fire trucks slowed down. One less unappreciative dumb fuck

I feel bad for saying this but I think that the car deserved to get hit by the fire truck they weren't paying attention like they were suppost to, If you ever here a siren you need to check your surroundings and make sure your not in the path of the 30 ton fire truck trying to get to someone who's handling an emergency and needs help.

Passenger car vs. 70 ton tower ladder, fire truck wins people, every time, pay attention

@yomamasofat1000 or 2 could be dead and out of service fire truck.

@SuperHamiltor Thats no way to be man, there is no need to down those guys, my fellow firefighters, or as you like to say "Hose Monkeys" like that. You took your job hopefully for the same reason I took mine, to make a difference when some one is having the worst day of there life. Thats what its all about so I ask you please don't be so negative there is no room for it in Emergency Services today.

Watch out, CodeRed is deleting comments he disagrees with.

@DominicMetal1979 no, it just proves that we have drivers that are asleep in there own world. You can here a firetruck from a million miles away. They should wake up, open there f..kn ears and look at whats goin on around them for a change

[SuperHamiltor]

@Polybun You either are a hose monkey are want to be one. Having no common sense or even having a brain in your head is must for the Fire Dept. I hope day a f'n out of control Fire Truck blow a red and takes out your family...one less asshole driver!!!!!!!!

[yomamasofat1000]

@SuperHamiltor

Yeah, and by that time, the person could be dead.

Now he is a hero to me for helping us when we were all tired. When we are needed we will bring order when hell itself breaks loose. Some times a friendly fellow emergency worker can make fighting hell not that bad. So I will ask you to be kind and watch what they do when they get into an "all nighters" situation. It might just surprise you.
