I bet they made the Canadian scupper aircraft land in Sacramento for safety inspections right?
No idea. Go ask somebody. What has that got to do with fire trucks?

It makes the fricking point that stopping these vehicles 5.5 hours away was bullshite
Unless your on scene command really isn't on scene.
Or the frickers refused to suspend the stupidity.
I guarantee you those aircraft and the support equipment didn't go to Sacramento for some fricker to determine safety or serviceability.

Then tell me it's safety and the drive could have caused issues. Um you did the inspection 385 miles and 5 hour 40 minute drive away from LA.
To which Danny boy responded?

The answer is - yes…it matters.

Cool. If you read the thread I have always said nothing about emmisions inspections. I think it's ridiculous to perform emmissions testing on the emergency vehicles.

The better question is this.
Is the state crisis center activated and if so why isn't the Governor there?
His state agencies should be there and waiving those things that hinder performance.
That's how each state should be set up
I know Midwest states actually exercise the CATs

Also it suggests for fighters and there equipment aren't at the minimum Fed standards for accreditation.
Unless you are demanding during a disaster that assistance from other states must comply with your state requirements of which they have no idea what those are.

Fox12 says the trucks aren't being held up in Sacramento.
Which news agency are you going to choose to believe?
Do we even know the actual truth of what is going on with the trucks?
I've heard multiple stories saying different things at this point.

So they already stopped in?
Are you suggesting multiple news sources saying they fricking stopped for safety inspections but not emissions are lying?

Based on his performance in this thread, I’ll go with the 2nd option. But he seems more than merely confused; he appears to be an utter moron.

Well, since some have issued retractions or "updates", the fox station will too?

You win. You're right. I'm wrong about everything I said. You know everything.
Have a good night.

Agreed. I can be extremely beneficent in these matters. He is simply an idiot of the first order.

Here's what I said. Link the whole post for context.
When I asked "does it matter?", I meant that there doesn't have to be reason other than prudent practice or policy that inspections must be performed.
I believe the long drive would be a good reason to preliminary inspection as well.
Quote all of my post next time.
I'm wrong though. You're right about it all. No use of me arguing anymore. Ya'll have it all figured out.

Politics is playing out. Yes, the stupid lbgtq crap and DEI crap in the LAFD is pathetic... but there are other normal people at risk out there.
I'm not playing the DEI bullshite. That's been done the last several days. We know it's California bullshite.
Move on to the real stuff.

It’s absolutely true. The inspection of the fire trucks including emission testing.
The shift in messaging on the issue is telling. We have gone from “it is fake news” to “no engine was turned away”.

Long drive? Like 5-6 hours further?
Come on mister EM guy.
As a person that took the I am so interested from the EM side of it
Do you think the state emergency action plan was activated?
Is the governor of your state in charge of it?
Everywhere I have been stationed or my home state of Iowa has a CAT all agencies are there even the state EM director sets to the right hand of the governor.

I didn't know state fire marshals were in charge of dispatching trucks and equipment to other states.
Wouldn't that be up to the municipality they came from?

They weren't turned away, just held up 24 hours until parts arrived to ensure they were "smog compliant".

I would assume so. Perhaps Oregon’s Fire Marshal is simply acting as an unofficial spokesman for the various firefighting teams since they all came from differing localities?
