I am from Willow Street, located in Lancaster PA, and I am a volunteer firefighter with the Willow Street Fire Company. I mainly post ride along videos to the scene, and helmet cam videos of the scene when possible, as well as the occasional response video if I'm out of the area and catch something.
Jesus, this is one reason i dont want to live in a trailer. You just need to prepare to lose everything when theres a fire. I hope they didnt lose anything they cannot replace, and hopefully they get a good insurance payout, what a shame.
Driving that big rig at high speed blowing red lights and stop signs everybody moves out of your way while blowing the horn and getting paid to do it it's a dream job pretty badass driving such a big rig and the spinning light add a different type of badass ❤❤
Up for me and I don't want Dad in a bit I'm just a golf ball but I'm still at your dad's and I will let me to take out my life insurance to be honest I think we can talk tomorrow night for the same ways I can see 😁🙈
I love these ride alongs... this is one the best ones yet... roto-ray lights, sirens, speed, and rain and the best part of all of this... No freakin' music! Normal background noise, just the way I love it.
minute and a half to first water, good drill. Put down line go here, put down line go ther,e looks like bad play manual. Maybe there were several cameras mixed together? Got get it on the fire and KEEP IT THERE.
This is scary! Just comfirms gor me the real danger of mobile homes. They go up fast and hot and will definitely endanger all the other mobile homes around it. I lived in one for a few years and was always worried about that. Never again. Thanks to the brave men and women who put themselves in the line of fire literally!
As a career firefighter for 33 years and for the past 8 years a district chief I can tell you that a 100 watt siren only project 12 feet if your traveling 55 MPH. ( that’s if your standing outside ) With the newer vehicles becoming more sound deadening people can’t hear you. Studies have shown people will see you before they hear you. The more emergency lights you have, you will more than likely be seen before you are heard. Funny but true story. I was responding to a MVA with injuries and I was pulling out from a side road to a main road sitting there as traffic was passing me by not yielding and I saw a car that looked identical to my wife’s that went right past me. I get home at the end of my shift and she asks me “ hey was that you I pasted ? I didn’t hear your siren until I already pasted you. I saw your lights but thought you were sitting there for some reason”. So we did a little experiment. I was in my district chief Tahoe and my deputy chief was 20 feet in front of me ( in a Tahoe )and we drove down the road at 40 MPH with my 200 watt siren wailing and he couldn’t hear me.
@@mattjohnston7686 The Q2B is louder than any of the electric siren options today due to its construction. It is an electromechanical siren meaning it spins the impeller and the sound is produced mechanically as the air passes through the impeller and the casing, instead of being broadcasted through a speaker.
@@mattjohnston7686 Absolutely not. The powercall tones aren’t any louder than any other electronic siren. At 40 MPH with my 200 watt electronic siren on wail and then yelp my deputy chief was unable to hear me with me and I was only one car length behind him ( about 12-15 feet). To close for safety when your driving emergency. However in a heavy traffic situation I find people don’t even know your behind them. With your windows up and radios playing music cars are designed for a “ quite” ride. After that test one of my engines got behind me with their Q screaming and they were about two car lengths behind when I barely heard then. The officer stood on the Q the first time then pressed the peddle for a few seconds and off a few seconds same results. Standing outside along the road you could hear the Q loud before the electronic siren. Sitting in a parked vehicle along the side of the road you could hear the Q but didn’t know what it was. It almost sounds like machinery running. Then we tested the electronic siren and the Q at the same time and really not a big difference. In a vehicle driving 40 MPHand one parked along the side of the road everyone said they didn’t really hear them until they were right on top of them. The firefighters standing outside said they could hear the Q over the electronic siren first and then heard the electronic siren as the engine was passing them. We did all this testing at out training facility that is flat with just a few building, no tress , no traffic , no other road sounds, no other environmental sounds to distort the sound of the sirens. Sounds travels in a straight line. It bounces off obstacles so real world roadways affect the distance and decibel level a lot. Since our testing we added a LOT of forward facing lights on out entire fleet and significantly seen an improvement in vehicles yielding far before we are on their bumpers.
