Split fail. Have your light donhalf and half. When you do it in 1/4's like that it is difficult for the public to see, understand, and react. Just because YOU like the pattern does not make it effective.

I love what you do, thank you for serving your community. I noticed you haven’t posted in a while so I’m not sure if you still volunteer or not. However, I find it strange that you have absolutely no side lighting. I’ve noticed on your POV response video that motorists at intersections can’t tell that you’re a responding emergency vehicle, so they don’t stop to yield to you as they don’t see any flashing red lights. I think a good surface mount on the side of the toolbox, as well as a running board light would for sure do the trick. Hell, if you’re able to splurge for it, I’d highly reccomend a roof mount lightbar. And rear lighting isn’t nearly as vital for just a volunteer POV as you’re not going to just be stopped in the road where you need people to see you, but maybe a light stick in the back and/or some surface mounts on the bumper would help tons. Does your municipality help offset the cost of adding emergency lighting? Idk if many or any places do that, but I’d imagine it would help out a ton. I’m not a volunteer but I’m strangely intrigued by emergency vehicle lighting and I’d love to spec out a response vehicle like this. But I need to do some more research into cheaper lighting setups as I mainly like to mess around with Whelen, FedSig, and Feniex (feniex is my favorite)

This is how you should respond to a call kids, driving with DUE REGARD I don't get the guys who drive 85 to calls they do nothing but make their department look bad, personally the fastest I drive to calls is 10 over the posted speed limit that's it and that's only if it's a hot call.

Best advice is if your responding POV from your residents or some where in the community Your light bar should be mounted inside near the mirror inside your vehicle for visibility. The reason i am telling you this is because i had a family member that was a fire fighter and LT and when he was coming home from work, out and about or responding from home he always using his POV (Personal own vehicle) and he had to mount his light in view it could not be where you have it.. Plus no one can see it
@n150cz911 ай бұрын
It depends on the state. Some state laws require 360 lighting. I believe most states require 360 lighting. Also depends on the department and what the chief allows. Just because the state allows it doesn't mean the department allows lights/sirens in POV. Here we aren't allowed to run anything in any VFD across the state because the department chiefs wont allow it. If the department does allow it then its at the discretion of each VFF as to where and how they mount their emergency lights.

This is a sensible piece of emergency vehicle driving . The speed is not excessive in some videos and he's giving other motorists the chance to see and hear him coming and yield accordingly . This guy is also taking into account weather and road conditions . Using common sense while responding to an emergency call is vital . It is better to get there to the scene then not get there at all . If your driving a police car , ambulance , fire truck , or special response vehicle like a manic , then you're putting not only yourself but your department and others including the victims at risk .

yup, the point is to keep moving and get through traffic, not be stuck in it. Im learning now you cant let your adrenalin get the best of you. If you wreck responding to a call how are you going to explain that to insurance, your chief, the town, the person you hit - its a mess to even think about.

I only ask because I was a volunteer firefighter in Spring City Tennessee and was allowed to have my gear with me at all times in case of a response directly to the scene.
