Station 13 needs to send someone to teach them to drive.
My question would be did the car run a red light since that area is noted for that or did the Fire Truck not slow down and proceed through a red light while on a call or did they just run a red light being arrogant?
Maybe it was David Black again. So worried about MVA Tags. Karma caught him once a second time would just be a bonus.
If the SFD wasn't so hell bent on chasing every ambulance with a fire truck, the odds of all their accidents would go down, doesn't take a rocket scientist.
1:29 AMEN! All about fake stats, and padding their own numbers. All fun a games until someone gets hurt or killed.
Sorry to disappoint The Haters, but the civilian was at fault. The driver failed to stop and yield to the fire vehicle and was hit. The call the fire vehicle was responding to was a fire alarm. To make it better it was witnessed by a State Trooper. Accidents do happen and police reports state facts.
By doing the chasing their bill multiplies by at least 3x the cost.
I recently moved to Charleston South Carolina and its pretty common to see a firetrucks going out with an ambulance. Before I moved down here I lived in Lewes Delaware and it happened all the time.
So who was at fault for the second accident involving the same personnel and station on the bypass right now? Just curious......
To those that believe it's OK to follow ambulances around in a fire truck, oh, in Salisbury not an engine, but a ladder truck, don't have one bit of fiscal responsibility to who pays the bills, the CITIZENS! It's just the little boys that hate riding in the gut bucket, and want to play fireman.
Just as bad as PAYING a crew to put that worthless fireboat in last weekends xmas parade. Can't even get a volunteer, to afraid to upset the overtime scams.
Did that actually happen?
2nd accident was not same personnel. That bunch from station 2.
SFD had two accidents in one day? Wow.

That's correct, they were trying to squeeze their nosy asses on the Bypass where they weren't needed.
No, it was station 1 personnel. Same crew for both accidents.
See let me put some light to this. I witnessed the accident while I was out front working. I had replied to my co worker that something was going on here comes the engine and Engine 1 come flying past us. Engine 1 traveling towards the light at approximately 35-40mph driver let off the gas and Jake brake engaged at the first entrance to Shorestop parking just past Ace and gym entrance. The light was solid red he applied Jake brake 5-6 seconds and brake lights before blowing the light and T-boning the driver. I was advised not to be a witness do to it being perceived as vengeful due to all the legal conflicts. Whoever said the driver blew the light is wrong and it was witnessed by two bystanders being employed in the right spot at the right time. the engine light was red. And the location and intrusion to the drivers side door should be enough. But MSP was literally right there on scene behind the engine collision. I'm shocked (not really) the driver was found at fault. We both said when we seen it someone is going to be rich. Shame on the driver all fireman know you proceed with caution and there no way he approched a red light that hot and stop, the officer should have seen him since he hit him drivers side traveling towards JMB. This takes the cake. Embarrassing for SFD, the Driver of the Engine, and the agency that found the other driver at fault. politics!!!!!
The problem with the Salisbury Fire Department is it is a young department now that they forced out most of the older firefighters and paramedics. There is one left and I am surprised he isn't going yet. Well make that 2. Hoppes, Tull and Scott would make that 5. My bad.
Anyway they let anyone drive the fire trucks instead of making that a promotion position. That is why they have so many accidents.
