Re: Cherry Picker Rescue
*I see the cherry picker and shut off the lights then pull up on scene, jump out. I see TVFD crew*
'What do we got here?'
Firefighter: We tried to start the truck and lower the bucket but it wouldn't budge. The truck wouldn't even start
'Ok. Hey guys! Hold tight! Try not to move too much! We will have a ladder here shortly to rescue you. Ae you hurt?'
Worker: No!
*I run back over to my truck*
"This is the SEV, I am on scene. There are no injurys as of now. And lowering the basket is not an option"

Re: Cherry Picker Rescue
"Understood, is the TVFD ladder up, or is it just sitting around. If it's up, don't take it down, see if we can get someone up there to talk to them, reassure them, 70ft is a long way to keep shouting. If it's down though, don't risk putting it up"

Re: Cherry Picker Rescue
(i'm guessing theres a decent sized crowd. I think of it as a busy street)
'Hey guys, Can each one of you take a side of the truck and push these people back a little bit? The ladders got to come in. I'm putting a safe zone around it'

"I'll have one of the tow companies on contract with the county send out something to break it down and get it out of there. If it's blocking the road, go back to headquarters, pick up the traffic back and drop that off until they break that down and clear it out. If it's not blocking traffic, then I'll get a TSD unit out there to relieve you."
(Note traffic back is the interchangeable rear that basically contains all sorts of traffic control devices and has a signboard there as well)
