As being a former volunteer, I enjoy the commercial trucks more than the custom cabs. Excellent video, my 1 comment would be to identify the fire department responding.
I got the surprise of my life when my local air ambulance flew over the Little League Baseball Grand Slam Parade last night, followed by a car accident on my main road through my community. Wet roads probably led to the dump truck and minivan colliding and putting the minivan in the ditch.
Great stuff, day, night, clear weather, wet weather. You are a real trooper. Great camera work, steady and in focus each time. Love the radio traffic too.
Are American emergency vehicles exempt from traffic laws when under lights and sirens? E.g. driving on wrong side of road or not using their indicators.
Great videos, not gonna lie that one engine flying down the right lane past stopped traffic scared me, he was moving along pretty quick and if someone in line heard the siren they may instinctively pull to the right right into their path. If you're passing on the right like that, they need slow down so they can stop if needed. I drove a number of engines as well as heavy rescues for years and would never move along at that rate in that lane.
Based on the number of specialized and/or really expensive looking trucks in your video, I'm going to guess your property taxes are as sky high as ours. When I was growing up, our town's FD bought a $2,000,000 100 foot ladder truck which they nicknamed "princess". The tallest building in town was 2 stories.
Mostly older retired firefighters. They go to calls to deal with traffic and stuff like that. It takes a load off of the local police department, and works well in the volunteer-mostly area this videos were filmed in for retention of older people with more experience.
I want to ask something. While watching the video, it struck me. Why do American fire trucks always have the same design?I'm talking specifically about fire trucks with cabins close to the ground and two crew compartments.These fire trucks have two-piece headlights with square-shaped windshields and rectangular front grilles.This design looks like it's from the 1970's.Is there anyone who can provide detailed information on this issue?
@@Belchmaster41 I guess I could understand that reasoning. It just is weird to me where we down here in the south legally have to run both lights and siren we cannot run one or the other. Look up Vanessa K free Chattanooga TN and there you will see why it is law. We have to sit thru slides and take a test yearly in order to be qualified to drive.
Number 17 and the FDNY TSU 2 were my favorite ones.
I love number 27 , where they pull up to put out " The Smoke Depo " . lol .

Thanks 👍
Greet from Poland, GREAT RESPECT for All Services.
Number 45, I wish people still had those grill lights, theyre just beautiful especially on internationals
Nice job Shane, you really did bop around the county, even up to NYC....
Tried My Best!
I love Sea Brights sirens. Also the air horn on number 3 is awesome!
The Navy is always the Coolest!
It’s not too common you’ll see a Navy FES unit responding off base, good catch on that.
37 should be in the top 10 so should number 35 both awesome responses
Great action pictures of all types, colors of fire apparatus responding to emergencies..
11:13 sounds like a scary movie building up tension haha
Saw Pierce, Spartan, Seagraves and looked like to E-One's
6:31 low key the best horn idk why
FDNY Squad 8...good catch.
Great video. Anybody know the light bar on 41?
Great videos
Who was the department with the blue truck? That was a cool looking unit.!
Matawan
@@shanebranin7735 I thought it might have been Moon TWP., PA they have blue units also.
@@shanebranin7735 what state please?

Depends on state, county, city but most places when emergency vehicles are responding emergant that automatically have right of way
42 i 17 best ever

Dang a lot of not using the siren
Depends on the hour and traffic
What was with the blue truck in number 49
Engine 65-4-84 From Union Beach NJ. Just the company paint scheme
This video needs more ladder trucks. Needs more Q and horn clearing intersections.
It’s an OK video. We need full house turnout as well.
I’ll make sure to include more next time!
42. Shifting gears

Good work on the video.
It’s too bad so many nice rigs were ruined by specifying top mount pumps.
Just asking? Was Clifton New Jersey in these? Very had to pick out.
No
What is a fire police?
Mostly older retired firefighters. They go to calls to deal with traffic and stuff like that. It takes a load off of the local police department, and works well in the volunteer-mostly area this videos were filmed in for retention of older people with more experience.
@@grandson_0623 interesting, here in Germany the police does traffic control

42 what des????
Most likely "Brush Patrol" or "Emergency Support Team". Given the specifics of this vehicle, I can judge that it is designed for off-road
Jesus saves
Wow at all the violations of law on this video. Lights no siren blowing thru several intersections without due regard. Geeze.
some trucks turn their siren off when making a turn if there's a lot of traffic
