Due to our FD safety regulations a fire truck can't even leave the fire hall without at least two people on board. Being that we have an all volunteer fire department and the station is unmanned that usually amounts to a small delay in even getting the truck dispatched. Then once the truck is on the scene they are not allowed to touch a hose until at least 4 trained firefighters are present.</p></blockquote><p></p>
