A Viewer Writes: Salisbury Fire Department

Joe, have you seen this? Looks like Salisbury Fire Dept. thinks they are above the law again, with the new wagons. Under the Transportation article statute §22–218 firetrucks in Maryland are not allowed blue emergency lights. See attached picture.

That's a water level gauge and not an active flashing emergency light. Look up the NFPA requirements for new fire trucks. That must be displayed on the both sides of the truck. Can not be forward facing or flashing..... And no, I am not a member or employee of SFD nor do I support all things SFD just think this post is extremely petty and uneducated. I guess you are going to also complain about them training with the equipment. I for one find it refreshing to see them training on a skill that is not utilized nearly enough in the fire service.

Of course they are, what police agency is going to ticket them? Just like the volunteers with the lights in their grills or on their dash are illegal but no cop has ever ticketed one of them. That is state law as well, private citizens cannot display any type of emergency flashing lights.

You tell 'Em Joe!!!!!

12:25, That is becasue unlike you, most people here in SBY either don't give a damn, or are to lazy and stupid to research anything before they speak on the subject, all the while they will demonize you for actually knowing what you speak of, versus them who think they know everything about nothing...

These are the same people who complain that no one stands up and fights for their lazy ass, the same people who complain about taxes and fees but keep voting in retards to run the city, versus fighting to make change...

The better question is why do you have so much free time op?

Who really cares what color the lights are? Thank you to all fire fighters for the job that you do.

12:17 Thanks for commenting what i was thinking.
It's better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt.
i too noticed the lights were on the side and not emergency flasher lights. Duh!

Another arm chair expert. This area has an abundance of them. Another reason no one wants to open a business here or hire locals.
