Fire police vehicles, for the most part, are relatively new additions to the fleets of many volunteer fire departments. Often older chief’s vehicles or ambulances have been retro-fitted for use by fire police, while some are purchased new and are dedicated traffic control vehicles. Depending on the needs of individual departments, others are multi-purpose trucks for scene lighting, haz-mat, utility, salvage, rescue, etc. Fire police trucks not only make the fire police officer’s job safer by providing communications, re-hab, and equipment to be close at hand, but they add a measure of safety to everyone working at an emergency scene. This is especially true in rural areas or in towns with limited police resources. In many cases, an unanticipated consequence of placing a piece of apparatus in the care of the fire police squad has been the development of company or squad pride and an esprit-de corps. As is the case with purchasing any fire apparatus, it is suggested any squads considering adding a fire police vehicle visit or consult with departments listed that already have units of this type in service.
