I really do not remember when that one was done. I assume the one when I was at Starbucks? I do not recall the call type.

@@POV-Fire-Response yea it was also the one where Siri thought you said I’m going to a car 🤣

@@POV-Fire-Response Any Idea when the next video is going to be. You okay haven't seen a video in awhile

Yes right now its on my safety vest. Not stable at all. I will look into getting a mount for it.

This apparatus is our heavy rescue. There is no pump. The oil dry is on top of the apparatus and is gravity fed down a tube to put in buckets. The Engine and small crew where already on scene. One of the crew members had to leave. Thanks for watching.

Thank you.

It is becoming more common than it used to be.

@@POV-Fire-Response where are you located

Nh is new hamster😊

Yeah no crew with him to go to the car accident because it's a volunteer department and now a days there are not many volunteers around during the day

Crew was on scene. We had members already responding with an Engine.

Ha ha are you in Aiken or Augusta?

@@POV-Fire-Response Hephzibah

@@POV-Fire-Response seen you around running 10-18 never knew you was Beech Island capin. Great show and nice set up on your truck

Thank you. The truck is showing its age along with me.

@@POV-Fire-Response brother that's everybody 😂 me especially LOL

It takes a significant amount of time. As a volunteer yourself, you are likely aware of the challenges that fire services are currently facing with volunteers. For instance, 40 years ago, the population stood at 234,000,000, whereas today it has risen to 332,000,000. Emergency calls have also increased from 10,819,000 to 36,416,000 during the same period. The number of volunteer firefighters has decreased from 898,000 to 676,000. This data was reported by ABC 30 news. Is it worth my time, gas, and money to continue volunteering. Living just 7 miles away from the station in Augusta, GA, and volunteering in Beech Island, SC, I could easily stay home. If Augusta, GA, had a volunteer program, I would have likely chosen to volunteer here. I strongly believe that every community should have emergency services to assist people in need. Despite the challenges, I'm passionate about what I do. While there are individuals closer to the station who respond either with their personal vehicle or by getting an apparatus, I usually head straight to the scene in my personal vehicle. Although it is uncommon for me to use an apparatus, there are days when it becomes necessary due to the lack of available responders. Every department has their own way to respond and operate. I thank you for watching and commenting.

Yes he was. He was hauling the car that he was on top of.

@@POV-Fire-Response pffff touche Chief touche

Its a volunteer department, and most times they just meet the truck at the scene since they mostly all have there gear in the POV.

lol hmm.

Thanks 👍

List Of Lights Used Are In The Description & He Has A Video Showing The Setup On His Truck !!

Ha ha I was waiting for the first comment of the phone in the hand.

No this is my own vehicle.

I will work on it soon.

@@POV-Fire-Response What made you start the bodycam footage?

The only true advice I can give is be slow to speak and quick to listen. Take constructive criticism, take all the classes you can and be patient. Keep a professional attitude and a positive mind set and you should do well. From me to you thank you for your service to your community. It is very hard to recruit and keep volunteers today.

@@POV-Fire-Response and thank you for taking time out of your day to teach me this

It varies. Our slowest month is around 30 calls our busiest is around 100.

@POV-Fire-Response wow. It's been a month and we haven't had any lol which is a good thing I suppose. We have a real rural area

What part of arkansas? I'm one in missouri. Arkansas is about 30 minutes from me

@@truthbetold8787 Awesome

No, that's called code 2.

rumbler, not rambler

He used to have one

Legally if running lights, sirens are needed. If anyone pulls out in front of you, and no sirens….. lawyers will be chasing the ambulance

@@RyanW-mj9lu Trust me, I get that. the thing is it's a two lane back roads with homes and the occasional intersection every once in a while. I feel it's unnecessary to be for lack of better terms "disturbing the peace" as they could easily observe oncoming vehicles and at that point hit their Q and sirens if necessary.

It seems like lately I'm getting a lot of that. People not paying attention.

So the problem is honestly twofold. 1. New cars are incredibly sound insulated, even cheaper economy cars. Sometimes this is in purpose, other times it's due to the thicker crash structures inside the vehicles. 2. Loud music! Again, even base models are starting to come with freaking subwoofers! So it's pretty easy to blast your music loudly These two combined causes you to not hear sirens and/or horns very easily. Sadly, can't really stop getting manufacturers to stop including either of those things. I've seen some research done into V2X (Vehicle To X) devices that could mute radios and/or speakers inside cars when emergency vehicles are approaching, but no manufacturer seemed to ever want to implement it.

Deputy Chief. The beeping in the video is the other camera not recognizing the memory card. I will get another card when I can to replace it.

@@POV-Fire-Response What does your ranking system go if you don't mind me asking?

Our ranking starts with a Sergeant. Our Line Officers are as follows Lieutenant, Captain, Training Chief, Operations Chief, Deputy Chief, Chief.

@@POV-Fire-Response aren’t you 800 so aren’t you the highest ranking

@@REDLIVESGAMING Unit 8 is the highest. He is the Chief. It goes Unit 8, 800 to 808 are the line officers.

I will try my best

Thanks for watching.

If your station allows it

Most don't allow juniors members to run lights
