The double fatality was 500m up the road from where another fatality was only a few months ago. I know that there are roads everywhere that are hot spots for this sort of thing, but Panalatinga to my knowledge (i grew up in that area) has only recently become an area of concern (well should be).

It's not the road that is is the issue, as pumprescue said the road is in very good condition with lots of room and a good surface. In the incident a couple of months ago and last nights job it was just a case of the driver making a very bad decision.

Unfortunately the job last night resulted in the young child loosing both parents and maybe an uncle, then again we could easily have had five dead given the impact and the circumstances, not to mention the peanut that tried to kill us on the way to the job - but that's another story.

Obviously not last nights, but was the bad decision a few months ago someone trying to get "airborne" heading on pimpala across panalatinga and finding a tree?
I believe that is what happened a few years ago also.

Congratulations present from head office for becoming captain??

Thats possible numbers ...Just hook up a portable scanner to the trucks cigarette lighter.  You could then...broadcast the headphone port's audio via bluetooth, to a bluetooth ear piece.  Or even splicing a Bluetooth audio feed directly off the Mobile GRN radio in the cab...?

Or do the old fashion way, which is to run a speaker cable with a switch, to the speaker horn location near the pump.

MFS appliances have remote speakers.

Which is prohibited under Telstras GRN contract with CFS unless they do it.

Your right uniden, MFS have speakers on pump like numbers wants, but they also carry multiple GRN radios but not others??

Can always tell rubbish collection night out that way just by the crews getting calls to continuous rubbish fires along one stretch of road

LYNDOCH & CONCORDIA 34'S AT INCIDENT. SINGLE VEHICLE LOST CONTROL AND HIT FENCE. NO FUEL OR LPG LEAK. POLICE ON SCENE. LYNDOCH STATION

Thanks for the notice, why dont they list everything that isnt on scene? We've had discussions before about them saying about what is happening, and it seems somewhat reasonable, if not annoying that they send messages about everything that is going on, and now there are messages about what they are not finding on scene...

There's a hippopotamus on my roof eating cake and wearing a leotard...

I reckon it's time for review chook when an agency that is designated heavy rescue in a town has two crew turn up to what looks on the pager as a possibly big job, and roll about two minutes after the secondary rescue agency has called a stop to the incident and pass them on the way home. 


This example would seem to suggest that pooling resources may have seen a quicker and more thorough response, but i don't see that happening...
