WHY WE MUST PROTECT OUR MEMBERS ON THE ROADWAYS! FFCC.COM NOTES: It's NO SECRET that the roadways and highways can be as HAZARDOUS to us anything else we get involved with. The DANGER in operating on the roadways and highways can only be MINIMIZED by developing a PLAN so everyone KNOWS what the rules will be, who will be where, who will be closing the road (or NOT) and who and what will be BLOCKING the roadways. The plan must be developed and trained on in cooperation w/ the responding police agency (highway patrol, sheriff, city police etc) as well as any other responders you deal with. THE ROADWAYS AND HIGHWAYS ARE DANGEROUS-EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED AND PREPARE FOR THE WORST. From FirefighterCloseCalls.com
