By visiting their web site they hope to make the public more aware of the dangers faced by these dedicated professionals and that motorists will exercise extra caution around any incident they encounter thus preventing more tragedies! Please recommend this site to your friends and family.

*Also be aware that often law enforcement will follow emergency crews and cite motorists who do not yield to the lights and sirens of paramedics and fire crews!
