Don’t park your car in front of a f#%%^*} fire hydrant, asshole.
Wasn’t talking to you, just what I think personally. And not bc it’s the law but bc it’s stupid dangerous and utterly selfish.
The firefighters have to do what they must if lives are on the line
Are you expecting many people to say 'they should let the house burn down before breaking a window'. Seems a pretty pointless question.
Legitimately they can if they're in the way. Excessive damage that was retalitory... no.
In a fire they don't have time to do excessive damage.
You'd be surprised with the Boston firefighters. They can get creative.
Lile how?
You've obviously never seen them push a vehicle out of the way by ramming it. :o
Well if they have to, I hope the car owner had to pay for the damage to the Fire truck
The city should have to pay back for the damage to the car.
Why?
City workers broke it.
Well maybe the city can deduct it from the parking fine which in my view should be $3000
On second thought, that is much more reasonable than what i originally said. Can I retract the statement?
Emergency workers are 100% entitled to do what they want - It could be your house on fire, your family member in there
well that's what the car owner's get for being in the way when there's an emergency..
I support the firefighters decision. A life is worth more than a car.
The fire fighters have to do what they have to do. Having your car damaged in that situation is the price you pay for being an idiot.
That's WHY it's illegal to park in front of a hydrant. Because firefights are legally allowed to do this.
I voted B! It’s against the law to park cars in front of fire hydrants. If they damage the person’s car to hook the hose to the hydrant, I definitely support that.
Our area has a 15 foot setback parking requirement around fire hydrants. If you park closer and only get a ticket, consider yourself luckier than the car owner in the picture.
It's as good as smashing a car window when you see a neglected pet in an overheating car.
People should know better than to park there, if there's a fire they got to do it
The should let the car burn down too for good measure.
B of course, if a kid is about to die in a fire what would you do?
Obviously you should protect the man's car, let the place burn down and the people die, and charge him with murder and damages to the property for illegally being parking in front of a firehydrant during an emergency. *sarcasm*
@devilman666 haha I appreciate the humour :D
But let's not consider it a good plan :-(
I'm not sure where you live BUT around here it is illegal to park in front of a fire hydrant. Park there & you take your chances.
I suspect that's the point otherwise the fire fighters would not get away with it.
I support the Fire fighters 100% with whatever they have to do to save lives
You park in front of a fire hydrant and you risk getting it jacked up.
No exceptions. No mercy.
If they got to do it then do it whatever it takes I support them 100%
