There's that scene from a TV show where the fire fighters are at a fire, and a car is in front of the fire hydrant. One of the characters calls out "Car!" and they then proceed to smash the windows, and route the fire hose through the car and connect it to the fire hydrant. Throughout the course of the incident, the hydrant leaks and fills the cars interior with water.
If only there was, perhaps, a similar effective, and cathartic response to these things.
- scruple 3y agoYeah, but imagine the car starts trying to drive away while the fire hose is attached to the fire hydrant. They'd have to disable the vehicle completely in this case, right?
- masklinn 3y agoThat’s pretty much SOP (there are videos on YouTube), however it still wastes time, and damages lines, and if the car parks on a line you have to waste time shifting the car itself.

- jimt1234 3y agoWhen I was a kid back in the late-70s, I saw a handful of firefighters and a few other burly dudes overturn a car that was blocking a hydrant near an active fire. They got the car bouncing, then completely turned it over onto its roof. Then, then sorta scooted it out of the way of the hydrant. It's one of my oldest memories, and it was awesome!
