Yeah... The ESU/FDNY Rescue pissing matches are really the only example I can think of where there is somewhat regular tension between cops and other emergency services.
What's the deal with ESU, anyway? Does it really make sense to have a parallel rescue company? Seems like I only hear horror stories (like when they dropped a car on that motorcyclist...)
EDIT: Also... "large professionals" indeed ;)
- ludicast 12y agoI'm not sure whose call it was for ESU to have these duties, but it probably was sold as increased neighborhood coverage, the same way engines do CFR until the real experts show up. Though I've had good experiences with them, I imagine there could be a lot of problems if their books assign them different tasks that conflict with us (I don't know what they learn). As far as the "car dropping" goes, there's no excuse for that ;).
