Wish all involved a speedy recovery!

Now my two cents:

According to the news report in the video, they crashed in the driveway of the house they were going to for a deck fire, Although there was not a good angle of the trucks involved the one that you could see had some serious damage to the officers side of the cab. So my question is why the hell were they going fast enough to cause that much damage pulling into a driveway? No doubt 'tunnel vision' was in play in this incident, even if the one truck didn't see the house and was cruising past the other driver should have been aware that the truck was not turning into the driveway, This is easily preventable! Driver training, Requalification what have you, or just taking the second to think and look.

On a lighter note, this is why the Chief should drive nothing bigger than a Tahoe!!
