Wow. It doesn’t look like any responders were in any hurry.

[@jimmccabe801]

We trained daily so we didn't have to hurry. we didn't waste effort hurrying.

[@and526625]

Safety first, crews need to set up, i thought their efforts were perfect

[@benv5812]

I look at these fires and find it unfortunate that a neighbor or the home owner didn't use a garden hose to slow the progression of the fire. It may not stop the fire, but cooling the garage door and slowing the spread could save parts of the house, or prevent fire entry into occupied spaces.

[@RandymanB]

I agree. You never see anyone at least attempting to slow the extension with a garden hose. Back with I was a LEO I went to several fires and was able to slow the extension with a garden hose before fire arrived.

[@jimmccabe801]

Garden hoses do nothing. Obviously you've never been close to a fire like this. It really hot.

[@benv5812]

@@jimmccabe801 Well, expect the part about being trained as a FF/Paramedic you would be right....... but your not..... while the average flow of 12gpm isn't the same as an 1 3/4, it is wet stuff on red stuff and will slow progression. and if you're concerned about the heat, use the car as a temp heat shield..... now go back to trolling....

Like toy soldiers...it takes 20 guys in the U.S to do the same work as 3 or 4 guys in europe....very strange work ethic...

You have to work with what you have I suppose.

[@johnclyne6350]

The other is personal accountability. 911 is who you call in an emergency. However maintaining proper condition of an automobile is paramount to safe travel & safe parking. Not maintaining a vehicle so it’s safe in both instances leads to these issues. Also having a fire extinguisher in your house. Knowing how it’s used & using it might have prevented this tragedy? We had a rolling fire in our oven. I was reheating pizza & went to take a shower. My wife called me down to let me know there was a fire in the oven. She called 911 & I used our kitchen 10 pound fire extinguisher to put the fire out. Instead of having a burned kitchen. We had a burned stove. The fire department was impressed we had the fire out without any extension.

Hard to believe in this day and age, that ANY Fire Fighter will get close to a car fire without being 'On Air'. Carcinogenic is the only way to describe to outgassing from this fire. Watching these guys wearing, but not using, their Air Packs demonstrates a complete failure by the Leadership of this Fire Department to provide for the Health & Safety of their Teams....

Wow thats a lot of standing around there fellas. If you’re not a volunteer station id say you owe the taxpayers some money back.

Not gonna armchair, it, but these things make tabletops for Company school. If you choose to be in front of driveway (or not) chock those wheels on the fire car,
