Early in my FD career, the department I worked for based your annual pay raise on your performance evaluation.

All the other types were just noise!

Remember pain: A pinch you feel after your engineer slap your fingers after you have forgotten that the button of the sirens is not yours to touch. You can order to turn them of with the consequenze that the engineer will also turn off the lights won't go over any red light, faster than the speedlimit etc. (except maybe when arriving in scene) but you do not touch them...😉😅

@photone 3 жыл бұрын

Generally in the US, both the driver and officer have access to the siren...note I said access. I didn't say 'Get to operate'. Most fire rigs have a mechanical siren such as the Federal 'Q' or B&M Superchief, controlled by a floor button on the officer's side and the horn button for the driver. I have known officers to threaten to 'Leave a a freaking' bloody stump if you touch that *&&^% siren button again!' if a driver cranked down on the siren! Officer's can get very protective of their Q2!!!

I was driving a new Captain on a Rescue Rig to an alarm, just before we 10-12ed, we were told our assistance wasn't needed, so we started to return to quarters. I took a round about way back so I could talk to my mate, a Lt. on the first responding rig, and quickly left the scene. After a couple of blocks, the new Captain decided I wasn't taking the correct way back and proceeded to give me directions, he was a part-time taxi driver, I then pulled over to the curb and pulled the air brakes and came to a complete stop. He asked what I thought I was doing, I asked him if he wanted to drive the rig, his reply was to look straight ahead and keep quiet. There ended his first lesson as a Capt. Please don't get me wrong, I really liked this guy and had always got along great with him, but we had to set our tolerances early in our relationship, he was a great Capt. and we continued our good times together afterwards.
