My view of the driver is "sucks to be you, hope your car didn't become a pool"..... 2 broken windows and I hope a good ticket for there stupidity.

    New York traffic is a mess. I have no idea how these fire trucks are able to navigate through. Then you add on idiot drivers who feel they are more important so they can’t move out of the way. Personally I feel if a car is blocking the way the fire department should be able to force cars off the road, put fire hoses through cars, etc, and it’s the car owner’s responsibility to pay for damages.

    There's an easy fix for this. Every fire house should have a tow truck that follows them on calls. Vehicles in the way? Tow them. Blocking an emergency responder? Charge them triple to get the vehicle back from the tow yard.
    I don't know how much that is in New York, but here in Hawaii it'll cost you about $400. Triple that amount and it's $1,200.

      @Rune Willem If you are legally parked you are not in the way. If you are in the way it is very unlikely you are legally parked.
      That being said, rigging a car for towing takes a *long* time. No matter what the cost to the owner, the cost of the people that might have no other chance of rescue than that fire truck is immensely higher.
      Don't park where you should not. It could very quickly become a matter of life or death, and that's just not worth it.

    Also, that trick with the bleach bottle was genius.

      That is why they should get proper high pressure hose reels like we have here in Sweden, and like all north europe and i gues even south europe. Super efficient! And easy. Each reel is 80 meter long and you normally have two.

      From that the truck stops at scene, it takes roughly 20 seconds to get water on the fire.

    I get it about the firetruck pushing the vehicle but the problem is it wouldn't work in this scenario. If they tried to push it, it will just end up going into one of the legally parked cars (unless the steering wheel was perfectly straight and car was aligned which is unlikely), which obviously will damage everything but then make the blocking car still block the road and become unmovable.

    could it be worthwhile investing in fire motorcycles?
    have a fire hose rolled up in one of the side bags
    basic first aid, a collection of hand tools and other small stuff in the other.
    fire extinguisher on top (or some other combination that fits your department's needs)
    respond with 2+ of these motorcycles, you could get to the location fast and get to work faster on simple issues, or prepare fire hydrants and closing the road for when the trucks arrive.
    Here in the Netherlands we are running a pilot program with firefighter motorcycles, and it seems very successful.
    we have 2 variants
    the first variant has:
    25 liter (12.5 gallons) tank, a short hose, but has lots of tools, first aid an the like.
    The second variant has:
    50 liters (13 gallons) of water/foam, with a 30 meter hose (98 feet) with a pretty decent spray distance.
    It carries less medical supplies, relying on our ambulance motorcycles to make up for that.
    These can just zoom through traffic, reducing response time, and reducing the cost of the simple calls that do not require a large fire truck and a lot of firemen.
