Fire Fighting Instructor Interview Question:

Tell me why do you block traffic lanes at auto accidents, sometimes more lanes than necessary?

Submitted by: Muhammad

We block traffic lanes for the safety of our personnel and our patients. Blocking extra lanes keep our personnel safe when they go back to our apparatus to get more equipment and help protect the victim we are trying to stabilize. Over 25 firefighters are killed or injured each year while working at incidents on streets and highways.
