When fire engines meet . . .
Let's see now. You have two fire trucks, each responding to an emergency. They meet at an intersection. Who gives way?
Woops!
ReplyDeleteThat is why one alwaysstops at intersections and assures that they are clear, siren blaring or not.
ReplyDeleteSadly, this seems to be a lesson that most ambulance systems have learned, but many fire apparatus drivers have not.
I just wonder if BOTH of them get a ticket for not yeilding to an emergency vehicle.
ReplyDeleteAfter all, should a common person do the same they get one...lol.
Hope the fire got put out in time though and nobody was hurt. That one truck that tumped could have been a real bad one for the firemen on it.
