Did you You know this is a law.. I did not
Commercial license needed to return equipment to firehouse
By JORDAN CARLEO-EVANGELIST, Staff writer
First published in print: Friday, February 20, 2009
ALBANY — Firefighters across the state are roaring for the repeal of a little-understood section of vehicle and traffic law that allows them to drive their fire trucks to the scene of an emergency — but not drive them back unless they have a commercial driver's license.
The implications of the law went vir… Continue

Humpy said… - Wow is it cold here. -18 is crazy. Furnace hasn't had a break in a week. We had a small plane crash land on a river near here last week and the dive rescue dept. was called out to retreive it. The pilot and passenger got out ok, but the plane was on less than 2 inches of ice, no clue why it didn't break through. We use the same mustang suits that the Canadian Coast Guard uses, and they are phenominally warm, beat the old gumby suits hands down. Hope you're not spending too much time standing out in the cold!
