Talking Trucks with Chief Ricky Riley

Highway accidents and fire apparatus crashes–what is the answer? Chris Mc Loone and Chief Ricky Riley discuss the impact rig crashes have on budgets, operations, and potential solutions to the problem. Are blocking rigs the answer? Whatever answer your department comes up with, make sure you are capturing the data.

Riley also talks about challenges he encounters when consulting with departments on new fire apparatus orders and talks about Kentland, Maryland, Rescue-Engine 13 almost 10 years since it’s predecessor was lost in a fire.
