Wednesday, June 26th, Selkirk Fire Department members partook in an event full drill. Here are a few shots from that night. (there are some fun photos shuffled throughout the album too ;)

2T33 and 2T20 (read more info👇)

These specific units have a “Hi-Way Riser” lightbar on them. The bar can flash both folded and unfolded, allowing troopers to drive safely with emergency lights on. Once the vehicle is stopped, troopers hit a switch and the lightbar unfolds, extending approximately 6ft higher above the vehicle. This allows for better visibility from a distance. Especially in high traffic areas, such as cities around NYS.

Bonus Info: Most troopers who use these vehicles equipped with the Hi-Way Riser bar, have complaints. The road noise is one, and the fact that in the winter, it can frequently get stuck either open or closed due to temperatures and snow/ice. This lightbar was designed to best be used in cities. Why? Because the extra 6ft of visible lighting, allows vehicles to see the emergency vehicle over other cars in traffic on busy city streets. With most highways being open and visibility not being an issue, most say that it is a waste of resources to put it on Thruway Trooper Vehicles.

What are your thoughts on this new lightbar?
