It is very common for my department to only have 1 or 2 guys show up for a call during the day.
I am not saying that driving an emergency vehicle gives you a right to drive recklessly. I am just saying that people are more critical of people in POVs than people driving EVs. Although reckless and careless driving is the same whether you are in a POV or EV, especially if someone is injured in an accident.
Most of our local LEOs know the vffs and are members of various departments around the county. So they are usually easy to get along with.
