Captain has the authority to split the response if we're enroute together. Otherwise, one unit has a duty to stay. It doesn't happen often. Also, the percentage of high priority calls is fairly low. Another way to look at it is if you encounter a fire enroute a medical aid. Obviously, we stop!

Major was Neurobiology, physiology and Minor in human rights. She was pre-med but changed direction before graduation. She works in research administration currently. Davis was a great experience for her (and us!).

The train to KDEN from Union Station is excellent.

Lol. 😻

You're good people, JZ, and it is obvious.

FTR: we cannot drive past an accident that we witness or are involved in. It falls under Duty to Act. We need to attend the incident we come across and have an additional response dispatched to the original call. I did this a handful of times in my career.

Hey, Tom. My daughter is an Aggie! Class of '22.

That due regard standard puts it on us most of the time.

It's definitely something to consider. We didn't run; we "moved with purpose."

I spent some time on this with my EMT students, too! 😁

Pre after-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine era. The new ones were considerably faster.

We had a defacto limiter on our '72 American LaFrance. It maybe went 50 top speed? 😁

*I was never involved in a collision in my 32 years.

Our orange tree basically quit this year. Not sure what that is about. 🤔🍊

Drove an ambulance, (40,000 lb.) fire engine,and supervised drivers for 17 years. We rarely exceeded the speed limit. It isn't safe and doesn't satisfy the legal requirement of "Due Regard" that protects us from successful litigation in a collision.

My firm represents FBI Special Agent in Charge of Las Vegas Field Office Spencer Evans, a decorated 21 year veteran, who was just summarily fired by Dir #KashPatel. No due process. Fired because he followed COVID protocol instructions issued by Justice Dept back in 2021-22.

In L.A., police nightsticks are clubbing press freedom to death | Will Bunch On Friday, LAPD cops allegedly battered and detained journalists at a protest — the ugliest of the many threats to U.S. press freedom.

10 journalists were put in cuffs and/or violently assaulted by LAPD on Friday night.

@willbunch.bsky.social wrote his Sunday @inquirer.com column about what this means for press freedom nationally.

My description: “Utter lawlessness by the LAPD... they seemed thirsty to crack skulls.”
