On Sunday night Engine 618 was dispatched, along with Advance Ambulance 625B and Ambulance 635B from Sterling Volunteer Rescue Squad, and Engine 624 from Loudoun County Fire and Rescue, for a reported vehicle accident in the area of Potomac View Road and Leesburg Pike. While units were responding, the call was upgraded to an auto accident with entrapment. Advanced Life Support 625, already in the area, arrived on scene and confirmed no entrapment. Engine 618 arrived on scene with AA625B, positioned to block traffic, provided additional traffic control and lighting, along with securing vehicles and cleaning fluids. Other units were placed in service prior to their arrival. Leesburg Pike eastbound was completely shut down, along with Potomac View Road.
Shortly after releasing AA625B, one lane of Leesburg Pike was opened. While units were still operating in cooperation with Loudoun County Sheriff's Officeffice on the accident scene, a vehicle traveling eastbound struck a parked LCSO cruiser providing traffic control. Care was immediately rendered to those requiring it, and additional units were requested. Engine 618 remained on scene providing traffic control and lighting while investigations continued. Engine 618 was released after tow trucks and LCSO left the scene.
This is the reason we block traffic with our vehicles whenever possible, to protect our members and those on scene with us.
My friend discovered this incident while he was on his way home and managed to record it and send it to me, and I shared it on my profile.
This intersection is so dangerous.
Prayers for all involved
People just need to slow their butts down Speed limit is not 60mph or over Plus emergency lights flashing means slow down and move over How hard is that to understand
 This is the norm nowadays. On their Phones phone phones.
