CalFire DOZER, Crews & Engines Responding Code-3 to a Wildfire! 

SW Western Australia, we'd get dozers to pretty much anything larger than a pile burn. But it's dry and throws embers and there are plenty round with the foresty industry.

God be with all these men and women that go to the flames and fight 🙏be with you all

Matt Godell amen

They need to pay those dudes and or commute their sentences with the possiblity to hire them as hotshots post with all the training and experience they get as long as they stay clean and meet with their probation officers. We need the man power with all the fires happening in California these past few years.

Cal Fire one of the few gov agencies that will hire a felon When they are released to continue to work for them.

@@gilc7626 Pretty sure there was a John Oliver story about the exact opposite of this. That they don't pay them barely anything, and they can use them when their prisoners but won't hire them when they get out. "California Law bars most people with a criminal record from becoming registered emergency responders" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AjqaNQ018zU.html

So those trucks have prisoners in them who are trained fire fighters?

GunzGonda yes they have inmate crews along with regalar fire crews.

They also have that police style pushbar, near full duty gear (sidearm, cuffs, shotgun or long rifle.) I have seen a few on the road. There is a video in youtube of a CalFire LEO conducting a traffic stop as well!

Ol first gen! I own a restored one.

Not really. That sound is just it braking. Most trucks with compression braking sound like that.

You've never heard of Jake brake?? Now you have! That's music to my ear. 🎶🎵🎶

@@jackiechan_wtf4041 and it has a Cummins NTC series diesel, pre late 90s emissions stuff, back when trucks actually sounded like trucks.

Looked like an international

@@Tractors_Trucks_And_Pups International.

@@mgp870 yeah, no bull dog and the internationals are very boxy on the front end just like the one in the video

Dirtman707 right? The dozer can go Code 3 but the helitack truck gets amber only?

53214 Vice Also the dozer tender only has amber lights and that is very confusing since technically it should be yielding to the dozer transport😂 At least the dozer tender in my unit has amber lights but the one in the video look like it had amber lights as well

Dirtman707 what is a heli tender?

Lund3000 Whenever a Cal fire helicopter is dispatched to an incident that Heli tender which is shown in the video also responds caring fuel an extra gear and parts for the helicopter

Amber lights lol 😆 downgraded🛴

I'm fairly confident that its a high-pitched variation of the Federal Signal Unitrol 80K.

Just-in Case pre emissions truck. Ain’t broke don’t fix it. And besides probably doesn’t have enough miles to warrant its disposal

Perry Crozier Think of the region. Also, its hard to put out a wildfire that size. It’s not gonna go out overnight.

Giovanni Elmer How would it not be..lmfao

@@imsayrocket CA Exempt plates, no registration or renewal required.

Certified Dirty Idle

Federal Signal Unitrol 480k. Probably came out same year that truck did.

Definitely sounds like a 480k.

Idiot trying to break check a fire truck.

You should do your research and know what the department is responsible for.

Its kinda hard when you have to deal with an entire state notorious for wildfires

watch this

Yes

CAL FIRE "Prevention" officer. They are fully trained police officers.

Leonara ! Whelen Cencom saphire

Thanks

Leonara ! Noprobro

It probably doesn't have a siren.

They were probably responding code 1 Since they didn't have lights and sirens going which would be as code 3 response , a few other units were like that. Those units were probably none-emergency mutual aide

2015 DODGE CHARGER SRT YT Oh cool, you’re the professional now?

@@firefighterprodigy yes

Not code 3 certified vehicle, numb nuts. That's the truck that carries things for the helicopters. Like fuel. Saftey hazard for them to run code.

Lights and sirens

@@Brian13549 gotcha, thank you B h

Jerry Cook bc they downgraded it after arriving

Notice how they probably had an hour+ of travel time

Actually in literally every state in the US (and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s true in almost all other countries), you are required by law to yield to any emergency vehicle running lights and sirens. Fire, police, medical, it doesn’t matter. Within the US laws vary state to state regarding yielding to volunteers running blue (or other color) lights, with most states either requiring people yield to them with failure to yield penalties identical to those for normal emergency vehicles, or requiring people yield but with reduced penalties. In the states where it’s not required, those lights are requesting right of way, and if you make a habit of ignoring them and a cop sees you, the two of you would probably be having a chat about that even if your actions aren’t inherently illegal in that state. Or just go ahead and refuse to pull over, as long as you promise to not complain when no one yields to them when they’re trying to get to your house that’s burning down or your family member who’s dying. Oh, and most if not all emergency vehicles have dash cams as required by various insurance and county/state regulations so your failure to yield and license plate will be recorded in full color and you’ll get a ticket in the mail if you actually try that.

@@MidnightPhoenix07 lmao, yes if a cop sees me I can get a ticket. As for dash camera, register owner is not responsible for the action of the driver so keep dreaming. Lastly that is why I have fire insurance.

@@MidnightPhoenix07 Michael Lawn is just a troll. He doesn't care about anyone. He could care less if his own family member was trapped in a house fire. Because that's what his fire insurance is for because it can replace his house and the family member that was lost.

@@Brian13549 My family will be just fine. I have fire sprinklers in the house.

We all know that you are posting solely in order to provoke a reaction Mr. Lawn! No reasonable thinking person would accept your spurious statement as anything other than provocative and infantile. Too much time on your hands: go find a community organisation that needs some labour and do something useful with all that spare time.
