🌟FLEET FRIDAY 🌟 FDNY SAFETY BATTALION 1 - ACCIDENT INVESTAGATION UNIT

[@highline64]

That is a lot of responsibility for 2 people to cover the whole city. Great job in covering this!

[@SkylerFire]

So for a Accident Investigation they will call in other safety members to assist.

[@stevesulligan1080]

That’s what I thought too. Be a busy unit

[@markbickelhaupt4414]

Skyler, The FDNY survey unit alas Safety Battalion! I work with a surveyor for 16 years, full total station system. Alot more to it with marine and Hazmat equipment. Great walk around 👍 Have a good weekend!!!

[@SkylerFire]

Yes it is! Thanks for watching

Great presentation. FDNY is the best. Thanks 😊

[@SkylerFire]

Glad you liked it!

[@Moose6340]

Wow. They really rolled out the red carpet (OK, the red truck) for you! I did not know all the stuff that they called Safety Battalion out for, and boy is that truck kitted out. That's a full accident investigation setup any police department in the country would be proud to have. Thanks to you for this awesome video and the FDNY for the access.

[@SkylerFire]

Thanks so much for watching

[@northeastcarhunter]

Truck carries it all, pretty cool to see some of these trucks up close and what they carry

[@aaronjohnson2843]

Do not know of any other U.S.fire department that has a dedicated battalion for this purpose.Thanks for another excellent Fleet Friday, Skyler.

[@RonCham]

Boston FD. H-1, Safety Chief

[@SkylerFire]

Your welcome!

[@trob0914]

@aaronjohnson2843; Most major city departments have dedicated Safety Officers. They may not be actual chiefs( very senior officers), but they control all safety aspects, oversight and full safety authority on fire and other major incidents! I know a 35+ year veteran (Very senior) “Safety” officer in WA state(large city) and I believe the department has 3 “Safety” positions! FDNY just have had years to establish and perfect jobs titles, changes have obviously been made since “9/11”!!🇺🇸

[@chrisbarr1359]

Thats diamond plate on the walls is badass!

[@SkylerFire]

For sure!

[@rob3160]

Thanks Tyler for the tour and thanks to FDNY Safety Battalion 1 for allowing Tyler to document your station.

[@SkylerFire]

Skyler* Thanks

[@rushturner1911]

Thanks for letting me know about this it was a excellent insight into what this vehicle is used for and the equipment that it carries.

[@SkylerFire]

Glad you now know about the Safety Battalion!

[@shoey124]

Awesome job! I love learning about the different/special units. I know it probably seems boring, but as an engine guy myself I would love to see their engine setup. I've seen some videos, but none that go in depth like yours. Keep up the good work

[@SkylerFire]

Working on doing a Engine Company soon. They all vary with the amount of equipment and some carry more hose

[@firemanjeffgg2440]

That sounds like a fun and interesting job within the FDNY

[@SkylerFire]

Big Job when it comes to safety

Nice work I like this segment of fleet Fridays maybe you can try to do a Rescue 1 or Rescue 2 sometime that would be amazing thanks Skyler.

[@SkylerFire]

You will have to wait and see! :)

[@diIbert]

Thank you. Great job.

Loving fleet Fridays 👌🏻

[@SkylerFire]

Glad you like them!

[@shawnganser8423]

You mentioned the Marine Battalion is also there. Do they run out of a pick up as well or on a boat?

[@SkylerFire]

They run out of a Boat with 2 FFs and a BC… I have a short video coming soon on that.

[@Michaelbos]

Beautiful truck, but fire the guy who designs the quarters for some of these pieces. Tight turn.

[@willlewis2207]

I've noticed that some of your rigs have phones in them , what are they used for ?

[@SkylerFire]

That’s how they talk on the radio in the rigs

[@gort400]

Awesome! Thanks

[@SkylerFire]

No problem!

[@Samanthareneeheart1]

Thanks Skyler! You are givingbus tours that most of us will never get as we are so far away from NY. SO TY for letting US (your viewers) in on these spitucaular units? Whats next on the list Rescue Batalion? 😊

[@joemoore8054]

Nice Job

[@SkylerFire]

Thanks!

[@robertbrady9597]

awesome video

[@SkylerFire]

Thanks!

[@blueeyesmatter3424]

Is there a link to anything that explains how the total station works?

[@SkylerFire]

Search Total Station Accident scene on KZbin you will get a result. I couldn’t show anything due to all they have is accidents involving FDNY vehicles

[@charleshale7574]

Are the RAC units under the Safety Command?

[@SkylerFire]

Yes

[@JoexxPACMANxx]

I know this is a Fleet friday videos but would u be able to add a little peek of the bay vehicle stays in and Any other FDNY vehicles that next to the vehicle your recording as a little In sight of surrounding units.

Thanks 👍

[@RedHat2023]

I'm suprised they didn't hook up the multi-level light bar from McDermott Lihht and Signal to the FedSig controller like the NYPD highway units. They could have programmed the button to flash when they are up.

[@SkylerFire]

I believe it does.

[@RedHat2023]

@@SkylerFire There is a smaller whelen surface mount next to the riser button that I assume does, but what I mean is they could have connected the risers up to a button on the fedsig controller rather than using a different button like what the NYPD has done.

[@SkylerFire]

@@RedHat2023 ah ok

[@RJSAMCRO]

Love to know if that Light Bar is FDNY specific, been looking for a custom one like that cant seem to find the name or model number for it. Would love to know.

Hello, I am a firefighter in France and I am coming to New York in September of this year. I wanted to know if I could visit this barracks and if you have contacts to make an appointment please?

[@SkylerFire]

Sorry can’t help you with that

[@robertschultz6922]

What unit is scheduled for next week?

[@SkylerFire]

You will have to wait and see :)

[@socalfirebuff91377]

Does the technician drive it? Also is you talking a voice over? I have kinda noticed it but haven’t been 100% sure yet.

[@SkylerFire]

Yes the Tech drives. No chiefs drive themself only staff chiefs driving from home. And yes

[@dbyers3897]

Who built the body, Skyler? The code is just GM19020 since it's a 2019 Chevy.

[@crewsk11]

Im suprised they dont have 2 safety battalions staffed all the time.

[@SkylerFire]

Sadly was closed in 1998…

[@Sophiebliek]

are these the "old"EMS unit or new special build?

[@SkylerFire]

Yes the old PRUs I believe

[@RedHat2023]

​@@SkylerFireWeren't the PRUs GMCs? Or did they use Chevy as well?

[@davehitt]

Very cool

[@SkylerFire]

Thanks for watching!

[@dcentral]

So Safety Battalion primarily conduct investigations? Strange that this responsibility is not allocated to Fire Marshals.

[@SkylerFire]

I believe Fire Marshals do work with them. Let me check on that

[@darreni5917]

what unit carries the drones?

[@SkylerFire]

Command Tactical

[@Sophiebliek]

what rig does SB2 use?

[@SkylerFire]

Uses the old one which is just a regular Battalion Pick up with a cap on the bed. 2013 GMC.

[@gaborandrejszki2553]

Wow! Such a Cool unit! I love it! Thanks so much Skyler for review!

[@chrisnorden8043]

Great trunk system. " OUT OF RANGE" showing on both. That's why I'm a fan of the old legacy. It's 2024 and the FDNY sticks with the voter system.

[@SkylerFire]

Ok

[@sheldonhchambliss1385]

I was expecting to see some heavy equipment like the Jaws of life and ropes and life jackets etc etc

[@SkylerFire]

It’s the Safety Battalion….

[@robertclark6349]

Does this unit handle arson investigations?

[@SkylerFire]

No

[@ATF1985]

U would think that want the real axel daully’s with all that weight in the box

[@SkylerFire]

They have like 10 or so of these trucks they were suppose to be for EMS but COVID Came and they didn’t use them. So EMS Chiefs and a few went to FD.

[@DizsLLS2197]

Are you on the FDNY ?

What is a total station?

Total station surveys are a precise laser method of mapping accident scenes or vehicle damage profiles
