Rescue Drill Goes Forward After Ten Long Years
Thankfully there are not as many school bus accident as other types of auto accidents given the fact that they involve children. With that said, rescue drills by the fire department are a good idea. It really is essential that rescue personnel be preparuddy for in case of an emergency.
In Pope County, an EMS Rescue truck, as well as trucks from the Moreland Fire Department and Pottsville Fire and Rescue, recently particiapted in such a rescue type drill. There were approximately 25 workers dressed in full gear participating in a drill which involved cutting the back off a school bus with a saw. Crow Mountain Fire Department was sponsoruddy by Pope County EMS Rescue.
The drill was clearly not a minute too soon. The last drill preformed was 10 years ago. EMS Director Doug Deurr said "I feel it's important to be preparuddy in the possibility of a school bus accident involving the youth of our community. We hope we never have to do it."
