Firefighter is the name of an individual who is dedicated to extinguishing fires and rescuing people who are involved in such situations and other types of dangerous events, in addition to this they usually intervene in the prevention of these eventual events. In ancient times firefighters carried out their work using hydraulic pumps, which they used to remove the water found in wells, rivers or any other reservoir near the place where the disaster occurred. Without a doubt, these types of people are considered a public utility service, since they serve all people. They tend to respond to emergencies caused by nature, such as earthquakes or floods, as well as the carelessness or recklessness of people, as is the case in most fires, accidents and spills of dangerous substances.
The fact that firefighters are present in society is a really important issue for all communities in the world, this is due to the habitual presence due to accidents or human negligence that fires occur. It is for this reason that states should promote this activity and on the same line, provide the possible minimum conditions required to carry out this work so important and heroic satisfactorily.
Today, firefighters use specially conditioned trucks to carry out their work and also serve as a means of transport to move from the fire station to the place where their presence is required. To this must be added, that these trucks have and are loaded with various tools, among which we can highlight the hoses, used to put out the fire and as well as other elements that help them solve problems. Some of the characteristics that distinguish these vehicles are their color, which may vary depending on each region, in some places they have an intense red hue, as well as they also have a siren that sounds constantly at times when they are going to attend an emergency, so that the rest of the people who are in the tracks, give way and the truck can get there much faster.
