Do fire fighters and police get along well?

Asked by Dainyinketie almost 7 years ago

Generally yes, there is some tensions specifically like New York PD and FD. I have seen it personally. My thought on it is there our days where I need them on a scene and they need me on others. We should operate as a team but unfortunately egos in some communities do get in the way of common sense.

Scene safety includes us. If you attack a firefighter while doing his job expect 3 others to come help him. It is an arrestable offense

My sister has a burn pit at the bottom of a hill. She also lets the embers smolder overnight. I think both are dangerous. She tells me to mind my own business. We both own the land. I worry. Am I overacting?

Asked by Ty over 7 years ago

Not the brightest of ideas. Wind can stir up the ashes and launch them up the hill. Many states it is illegal to have unattended fires especially diring fire season.

When the fire department gives the "all clear" after the fire does that mean the building is safe to live in or just safe to enter? Is the fire departments all clear enough proof to give a tenant to say that they can still live on the property?

Asked by Jess Williams almost 7 years ago

No. All clear means that all hazards are removed, or occupants are out or all units are clear and returning to service. It does not meam safe to enter.
