POV Responding to 2 alarm Structure Fire. Restaurant, smoke and flames showing. 

Replace the memory card in your camera with one rated at least a Class 10 to resolve the stuttering.

You follow procedure and do a VERY fine job clearing intersection! I am a police officer so our procedures are a tad different but as far as responding to a serious call goes, you did that like a pro.

I don't understand why people have to wait for the emergency veichles to come an inch away from them before they actually move over.

Just reminder folks pull to the right for sirens and lights and rights that way -------->

I may be states away from this but this is a prime example of why i became a firefighter. The thrill of taming the untamable and knowing u can make a difference in someone elses life is more than any thanks or any amout of payment could amount to. Life is priceless and i thank you chief for the things you and your fire crew do! As well as all others in uniform regardless!

What is with everyone pulling to the left😂😂😂

Very nice video. It is sad traffic does not respond to you approaching but I guess that is typical. I was a volunteer 40 years ago and it was the same then. Cars now are better insulated but they still have review mirrors for the driver to monitor while driving. Stay safe.

I've been the EMS Chief for 14 years and I've seen some ignorant people not moving to the left or not pulling over at all is a cluster fuck! I believe you should increase you siren out put my friend...a second speaker is all you need and the decimal would drastically change you all over sound!

May I recommend train horns

bloody hell, do people not know how to move over. This is the basics of driving.

left is the new right

I've been waiting for videos like these. My favorite POV responses

Been almost 4 years since this guy has uploaded

I’d recommend better siren usage and less bullhorn at junctions if you want a better response.

I realize this was over 5 years ago but the science doesn't change. The reason people don't move over sooner is not necessarily their fault. In emergency services everywhere support vehicles are usually equipped with 100 watt siren systems. Law Enforcement, fire dept. support vehicles and some EMS are equipped that way unless they are specifically designed to have bigger batteries and alternators installed. Fire apparatus do... The Chief did a fine job responding but did you catch his speed during the response? A few times he reached speeds over 80 mph. According to the National Safety Council and others once your speed exceeds 60 mph you are outrunning the sound of your siren. The driver hears it but the public does NOT until you are on top of them. At 40 mph your siren is heard only 10 - 15 feet in front of you. Couple that with how quiet a vehicle interior is, radio playing, kids carrying on, etc. it is very possible those drivers don't know that EV is there until the last second. And yes, there are those drivers that just don't give a damn!

Will you be doing a video on your POV setup soon?

Nice driving DC 1401, Florida is that way too, drivers are told to pull to the closest curb. It was like driving down a serpentine course at times. Glad I don't do that anymore .

1401 you did an awesome job with this video even POV if we can barely get by in our POV how the heck they think we going to get that engin or tanker through those tight holes. People should always have to experience either riding in a tanker with that 1,000 gallon stainless steel tank on the truck. Or let them drive it with all that water swishing back and forth and have cars pull to left just enoughed so you hit their exposed ass sitting on the left shoulder. If I get an occupied structure fire I'm carrying their trunk and bumper with me most likely and explaining why to the chief when we 10-24 a scene then go 10-8 and wait for the next one. watching all your videos 1401. Great driving again brother. Two thumbs up👍👍

Dude, you clear intersections like a boss!

@4:15, looks like that pickup and car may have hit each other. If not, it was dang close.

10 minutes is a long time you must be in a really big district. We respond in our district within 10 minutes thankfully from home to station to scene. People think it's easy sometimes and question "what took so long?!?". You do your absolute best with each call. People have to understand what it takes to get to a call and how much goes into it.

at 1:40 what was the siren you used right be hind that grey 4 door I like never heard that one before so I'm giving you a like just because of that also awesome video

Great to see another response from you Dustin!

pull to the right my god that crazy people cant think

When I was an EMT in NYC most vehicles just slammed on their brakes in front of you. You have it good, at least they move over even if it is to the left.

Good deal Great job.... I was suprised you weren't getting updates as you were getting there

You happened to be in Texas? I used to live there and they have the shittiest drivers in the world!!!!!

I have been in Fire/EMS for about 15 years, and throughout that time I have never seen someone drive so reckless. I have held every rank in the service I know what it's like for comments that will come from the peanut gallery. You do realize if you hit someone or wrecked your vehicle going over the railroad tracks doing 92 MPH while on the cell phone none the less is reckless driving, reckless endangerment of the other motorists around you, among other things. Most Vehicle and traffic laws let emergency vehicles exceed the speed limit by 10 or 15 Miles Per Hour at the most not 30 over the speed limit when you are already late to the party. Your ability to use due regard as an emergency vehicle operator is unbelievable and I would suggest slowing down before you hurt someone or you hurt yourself. Unbelievable and these are the people who they allow to have lights an sirens in there personal vehicles. Typically Jolly Volly one fire per year and they spank it all the way to the call. 2nd alarm either it was just wrapping up and you made it to the end or that was a ridiculous command decision to strike a 2nd alarm. Would you look at that you rushed 95 Miles per hour to get there in time for over haul. Great job there Chief Great job! I hope I never end up in your district because that was nuts.

25mins late to respond and still bother to do 80-90+ in a 60, then take a phone call on top of it... impressive. (Hope that sarcasm is clear enough)

I'm from South Florida, Fort Lauderdale to be exact, and whereas they.might not move right away, at least they move. We have folks.down here that don't get out of the way of fire trucks, the full size rig.

I rode with a officer once that when people refused to move over going code he would put his brights and take towns and spot light on... Usually moved them TF out of the way

Great response chief

You need to watch your videos and just ask your self . I delayed 25 min. is it worth driving to the point that I might kill someone on the way. I'm a retired Fire capt./Ems and worked as a medic for the Swat team. If a cop saw you driving like that here in Florida he would have fallowed you to the scene wrote you some tickets. In your Pov the laws are not the same as if you were on the fire truck. you can't go into oncoming traffic , you have to stay in the left lane and stop at traffic lights before going and 15 mph over is the max. This is to help you now the laws. I retired after doing this for 35 year and seeing some young firemen get killed driving their Pov on a call(killed 2 firemen an a child) all over going to fast. I wish you the best and my god bless you

Good job! The ride alone looks stressful enough to me.

Dustin your videos are amazing why do you post so rarely

You need a Q2B on that thing lol

I’m just watching this Video and good work sir, I assume you’re a Chief would be my guess since you took the incident command and what kind of vehicle do you have?

As a volunteer firefighter are you allowed lights and siren in your POV in Texas or is it only for command personnel?

Love the videos, keep them comming

here in PA only chiefs are allowed to have sirens. wish our county chiefs also had the rumblers because they sound amazing!

Now I know why our chiefs are sometimes annoyed on arrival.

Good job 👍. Don't let people give you shit for being out of town atm.

One thing about this firefighter he as no problem moving traffic 😂😂

so i noticed before you took off you mentioned a number to dispatch, do you run lights on your pov? and do you have to have a permit for the lights and sirens?

Why so much camera stutter?

what was the cause of the fire, and I also appreciate the brotherhood of law enforcement, firefighters, and EMT crews to respond to any fire in the general area where they are stationed. Southern Texas is not that easy to police no? Be nice to these officers.

Excellent driving!

Drivers don't know what to do when a emergency vehicle coming? Isn't this taught in drivers ed and in the driver's manual?

Running my favorite siren when i was on the vfd a good ole galls street thunder siren mine was given to me by my dad and i ran it for 3 years in my pov

I've seen people keep moving while an ambulance was transferring someone in New Albany Indiana

where is your company located chief? and do you allow your guys to run lights and sirens on their pov?

grate do you have any advice for upfitting a 2007 ram 1500 hemi 5.7? im looking into joining a local volunteer F.D. in my area & would like to set-up my dodge ram with a civilian/police performance package other than increasing the speed governor anything else you could recomend i do to improve the speed for the reasponse times?

Good vid overall. Only suggestion would be a deeper toned siren than the halls, like a Carson, ppwercall, or such. Doppler effect is a bitch for road clearing. It's a problem that has plagued falls for years.nalternarively a higher volume output could counteract that. Do disagree with comments saying to get a rumbler or a eq2b. Eqbsuffers from the same Doppler effect problem, and the rumbler has a remarkably short range, resulting in the same "moving when 5ft away" issue here. Sadly can't fix stupid in drivers so have to do what you can instead

Miss this channel!

The video is 9:11

Hey I've been watching your videos for a while and I was wondering what kind of siren you were using in this video. It sounds like one that I have which is the Smart Signal SS670

2:41 - this guy's got the right idea! 5:43 - this one does not. 😐 IF YA HEAR SIRENS OR SEE LIGHTS, MOVE TO THE ------> PEOPLE!!

Surprised this guy did not cause an accident, Thank goodness he responded and answered his phone. I feel safe.

That's one a hell of a long ride.

Great response!!! get that🔥OUT!🚒🚨

Nice response. When ICS is activated who assumes command until you are on scene?

Awesome! Was anybody in your area deployed to Hurricane Harvey?

Not sure if you still run this youtube account or not, but if you do I have some gear you might love to add to your vehicle sir. Feel free to reach out to me! Great videos!

Nice driving Chief!

90 + mph??? really ??? ever heard the saying out run your siren ???

driving 90+ miles an hour is a great way to represent the department..

Awesome Chief!

Cool video

Should slap a EQ2B on the brush guard. Clears traffic nicely!

Yay someone who actually knows how to properly respond to a serious call!

Now everyone in the world knows your gps cord to your house!!!!

You ever gonna upload again? I miss your vids Dx

I couldn't post my pov responses online. My profuse cussing would not be good to have posted publicly.

Nice video

What kind of dash camera are you using in this video?

excellent siren work at first intersection 👌

When are you gonna put up new videos Dustin

what siren do you have?

Sure wish in my state we could use sirens 🚨

Can you do a vid of your new POV?

I love pov I made two vid on them

What kind of dash cam?

Running code 3 ... 25 minutes after the page ... nuff said!

Nice air horn usage

Pull all their licenses HOLY FUCK!!!

If you are the Chief that makes this response 10x more irresponsible....I wouldnt work for you. Fire was clearly under control before you got there

Are you not allowed to pass on the right??

Do you not have lights on the front of your vehicle? Lol

so you responded to assume command ... why? are the officers already there not able to do so ?

why is there hesitations in your video?

U good?

Good driving, stay safe out there brother!

Are you the main chief?

Where was this? It looks like texas?

Watching every single of these idiots FAILING to pull over to the right is infuriating. Here in Wa state, if you fail to pull over for lights and sirens and a cop/trooper, LEO sees it, it's an automatic $965 ticket NO WARNINGS!

Need the rumbler siren

4:14 crunch! The white Ram just rammed that sedan.

Do you Need so Long to get to the Fire Station? In Germany we need usually 2 minutes.

A lot of people on here are a critic of what your speed was responding, but they fail to realize the meaning of 2nd alarm, or the fact that as soon as you arrived on scene, YOU took over command, which shows you are a high ranking member in the department. Until people start doing the job you do, then they have no room to talk. Not to mention a lot of them probably live in the city and have no idea how volunteer departments work

Looks like - most folks like to hog the left lane, even when nobody is in the right lane, which is mostly done by drivers of trucks and vans. Must be a man-thing.
