Development bordering main road
When I was out for a run yesterday I was contemplating a scenario and wanted to start a discussion on it.
If there was a fire in a house that is part of a development but also borders a main road can you envision a situation where the officer, or the whole crew, would exit the apparatus on the main road versus continuing around to division A in the development? What would factor into the decision either way?
Picture this location
My thought in the situation above.. Engine responding down the main road, sees fire blowing out the back of the reported address. The officer could get out there and start the 360 while the engine and crew proceed into the development to Division A. Obviously the fence would be a problem in the picture above.. what if it wasn't there?
Also, what about scenarios where the Engine itself stays on Division C and let the next in take the address?
