Sort of a response video....

My hoseman decided to use my new helmet cam to video most of our run to a vehicle fire. I'm driving. I didn't know he did it until I got back to the house later.

Nice. But.. Pull string air-horns!? Are your air horns on that thing mounted up top? Also, what was that yellow card thingie dangling there? That could get very annoying and distracting.

Accountability card? We hang ours on the dash.

That's pretty good video! What helmet can do you have? I've been looking for a decent one..

The yellow card is behind the drivers head so how is that distracting. Many places use pull string air horns. They dont have to be on the roof.

Nope they dont. I love trucks with pull cords.

This. Reminds me watching Backdraft as a kid.

Nice video... The only thing I didn't like was the use of the Q... Holding it full tilt like that doesn't get better attention then if you wind it up and let it down some... But thats just me... Awesome quality out of that camera...

Yep, pull string airhorns. They're mounted in the bumper. The card is our accountability system, it's mounted a foot or so behind the driver's head.

Firecam mini. I'm pretty impressed with it so far, but it hasn't seen fire.

Wasn't me, we have the policy that the officer handles the radio, q, and airhorn. It doesn't always happen though. , here, I'm in the right seat and that officer was driving. And out of habit, he was still running everything. This was this morning. I cut it off just before anything got shown patient wise. Also, ignore the language, or turn the volume off. I have a dirty mouth.

Ya know its sad, I see it more and more these days. A line of vehicles pulls over and there is always an a hole who continues on around everyone else. Ya think they might think something is up when everyone else pulls over??

This is going to sound bad, but hell, I've said worse. Several years ago, a former member of my dept ran a red light and killed a man. You'd think that'd convince people to move. :duh:

"MOVE, bitches!"

 

[dusty]

"MOVE, bitches!"

I swear to Christ, if I could get away with playing "move bitch" by Ludacris over the PA instead of a siren, I'd do it.

 

[RyanZ71]

what the hell was that squealing noise at the end?

 

[Brian H]

"MOVE, bitches!"

That was epic

Warning alarm for an open door without the airbrakes being pulled.
