Tactical Fire Problem - Pickup truck carrying explosives.....or not?

This week a vehicle fire that could be a big problem.








1.) When you get dispatched to a vehicle fire, always ask for more information if it is the least bit unclear. If someone says truck fire ask what kind of truck.

2.) How close would you have to be to recognize this? Lines might be stretched and crew dismounted. Now what?

3.) How far back do you evacuate? How do you measure that in the field?

4.) How long will you be on scene?

5.) Think this through; How will this incident ultimately be mitigated?
