thorin bingham Thanks buddy! We are in a small town in Elizabeth, West Virginia. County of Wirt. Here is a link 🤗 m.facebook.com/Elizabeth-Wirt-Volunteer-Fire-Department-284995588200414/
JW93Emergency Hmm. Just as long as it grabs attention to civilians driving down the road, I don't see any issues with it. The state of WV, only permits first responders (EMT's/Volunteer Firefighters) to run Red, White, or Yellow on apparatus/POV here. If Law Enforcement suspect that you have any blue lighting on your vehicle whatsoever, you will be charged for Impersonating a Police Officer. I do agree, blue lights do grab more attention, but the state decides on what they do. Don't have much say.
JW93Emergency no. Red/white seems to work just fine here. Our personal vehicles are allowed blue courtesy lights and they don't move traffic nearly as well.
NearlyDirtBiking because we actually tend to pay attention when we drive. Too many lights is actually dangerous. Also, you won't find a single fire appliance in service that only has two blue lights in the UK.

Thank you
thorin bingham No problem buddy! And welcome🙄
The Police didn't respond and report controlled burn?
Police usually dont respond unless the fire department requests them, but this varies in places
Where is this dept located
Wirt County, WV
1:57 there goes frigging kitt
RescueRick911 Frigging Kitt? 😂
Nathaniel TexXas lightbar looks like the lights in Kitt from night rider
Joshua Kosek Haha. It does!
if the fire was across the road, why couldn't you show us that?
dan think Reread the title...
Why do you still use red? Red lights are very ineffective.

The state needs to have a re-think. Do what we do here in the UK: all emergency vehicles have all blue.
JW93Emergency no. Red/white seems to work just fine here. Our personal vehicles are allowed blue courtesy lights and they don't move traffic nearly as well.
I got to wonder how yall in Europe think 2 little blue lights on the roof of a fire apparatus are effective...
