While the Thursday Volunteers were on their Saturday rotation Engine 618 was dispatched along with Sterling Volunteer Rescue Squad, Loudoun County Fire and Rescue, and Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department for a reported house fire in Sugarland. Fortunately the issue was a sparking outlet, mitigated by securing the breaker and calling an electrician. Additionally, it provided a good training opportunity for an up and coming Engine driver to learn that hydrants aren't always where you'd like them to be. It also prompted us to remind drivers that it is illegal in Virginia to drive over fire hose. Please help us keep our equipment in good shape so we're always ready to protect you and your loved ones.
§ 46.2-922. Driving over fire hose.
It shall be unlawful, without the consent of the fire department official in command, for the driver of any vehicle to drive over any unprotected hose of a fire department laid down for use at any fire or alarm of fire.
