    How to Not Die Fighting an Ammunition Fire

    Best advice, near as I can tell, is if you pretend that there isn't any ammo there and act like it's just like any other fire then you'll be fine. ...no, seriously

    Philly Grass Firefighter 1

    My vocabulary is only so big and I can't come up with enough variants of "what?" to add a proper comment so... um, yeah.

    Vancouver Engine 26

    Wish I knew what siren it uses. Force 4 SD with no modern anything except what looks to be a Whelen 700 LED on the grille, seems pretty common either there or as a replacement for a Piercer on the Edge bars their commercial cabs use.

    LAPD response: NGPI Christmas trees (relatively)

    With old school steady red and a headlight flasher for comparison.

    The halogen rotator still lives! - Toronto PI Utility

    A startling case of excellence - Audi Allroad in Copenhagen suburbs

    I think the lights on the lower edge of the bumper are unnecessary but other than that I'm pretty sure there is not a single thing wrong with any of this. ...Well it is an Allroad so it'll probably have some catastrophic mechanical disaster in the next few weeks, though. But at least the lights...

    Chicago ditches the green - CFD Battalion 1

    I saw some picture here of a Chicago PIU with a Vision SLR with a green pod on the right, and another somewhere else without green but instead pods 1 and 7 were blue. Looks like they've copied that last scheme on the Valor. Anyone else know how widespread this is, like are they ditching green...

    Ambulance rollover test - Ford E-series type 2

    I'd be curious to know how different it would be with a Type 1 or 3, or a commercial medium-duty chassis, or the new unibody Transit. Also I'd like to know what they actually found out as far as new information they gathered.

    Streethawk at its finest - Philadelphia FD

    Yes it needs intersection lighting, but I've seen other videos of this specimen and it does have strobes in the headlights and taillights... but the ones in the front turn signals provide zero side visibility on the GMT400 series, plus they're not even turned on in this one. It doesn't have a...

    Holy sync, Batman! - Halton Regional EMS

    From what I've seen on YouTube, it looks like some parts of Canadia have a strict rule that all EMS vehicles always have red and white lights, all the time. I don't know for sure whether they turn off the white lights when stopped. Maybe you disapprove of white to the rear (like I do) but...

    SWPS Strikes Again: Unmarked 2015 Charger

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ryno9Lbp8f4 No side warning, and no sync (the upper rear lights might be but the clip is too short to tell IMO.) For a relatively conservative amount of lighting it seems really disorganized. And the flashing DRLs can't possibly be as bright as proper high beams...

    Twinsonic 12X with Clear Cutouts

    Guessing this isn't a factory option? It could definitely use a good scrub too, those domes aren't in great shape. Skip to 1:51. edit: Actually I just noticed the guy talks about it a little at 0:30 and he actually doesn't sound like a mouthbreathing idiot...

    Sydney AUS emergency services - New Year's 2013

    Oh, that kind of "halogen lightbar" - 15 seconds in. That truck is probably the most Australia thing in the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CabtjJVjkM

    Danish police give Mondeo a workout

    Or more particularly, they're just seeing if the tires can make a louder noise than the siren. Good job on the camera for showing us that that Patriot is actually working. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6lgJ-csarY

    Oregon deputies responding

    edit: It might benefit me to find out where Snohomish County is before I post things like that. That's in Washington, not Oregon. I do like those Edge bars with the blue strobes and red LEDs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y2vZ3BFx9U

    Do they have enough lights burnt out yet?

    At this point it's actually getting kinda expensive to fix all the dead bulbs and motors. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c7nbn5wYrM

    13 and a half minutes of MX7000 and/or Vista

    No dumb music, no Stuart, no LEDs, no sirens, no commentary, just simple pure halogen goodness. *Includes BONUS V8 and tire squeal sound effects at NO EXTRA CHARGE*

    Chicago police responding

    Strobes showing up on a video?! I approve. Looks like they oughta turn on the rest of the lights though. Can't say I like that siren. This is what they call a squadrol, right?

    London Fire - Hyundai w/ LED Pancake

    Coulda used a better pattern and mounted it at a better angle... not to mention that LEDs in a pancake beacon is just wrong. But it could be worse.

    Ripon, CA police car show - Video added

    5 Oct, 2013. Yes, it was a while ago, I'm lazy. Shush. Weird hill light - instead of a clear bulb turned slightly down opposite the one pointing at the sky, it's got a blue one that's level. Another...

    Code 3 hints at something big: It's a Jack Daniel's app for your iPhone

    https://www.facebook.com/events/350613998394346/ "Three of the five senses." Maybe a fancy computer-interface gadget to control winky-blinkies and woowoos, plus the pseudo-Rumbler which I guess counts for the third sense.

    HLF as a brake light

    The video is a couple years old so their collision warning systems are more advanced now, but it's interesting to me that they've included a headlight flasher as part of the system.

    Weird new light from Whelen

    Whelen Engineering - Lightheads - Lightheads, Directional Strobe, Super-LED®, LED, Halogen & Combination What on earth? Is this more or less a SoundOff Intersector with a spot light attached? edit: I think this is actually a genuine New Innovative Thing. 180-degree warning plus a spot light...

    Code 3 continues their catch-up tactic, still no mustard

    So they've introduced a pair of new lights that other manufacturers already had. The CommandStik, which is totally not at all like a Whelen Inner Edge: Code 3 Police > CommandStik And the Citadel, which also clearly bears no resemblance to the Whelen Outer Edge: Code 3 Police > Citadel...

    Arlington Police photo dump

    There are two vehicles that I really, really ought to get a picture of: One is a marked Suburban with their typical TOMAR Blade on the roof... at the back. The other is a Crown Vic with gritty black bumpers that I'm pretty certain have pickup truck bed liner sprayed on them. 1. 2. 3...
