Tx LEO Need Offical Regs

[MadHatter]

we do whatever we want boy. do you know what authority means? if you cant find a law against it, we can do it. if you find a law against what we did, you cant prove it.

if you prove it, we get 90 days leave paid leave, paid by you. thanks for playing.

Sounds about right

Risk is not worth the reward in this situation. If you are involved or cause an accident you and only you will be liable. I wouldn't want that risk.

This. A rosehill volunteer got arrested then sued after a crash going to a grassfire

Nothing purdier in a rear view mirror than a Ford ranger with triple whip antennas bending in the wind, large 911 stickers all over it, 19 year old driver working the scanner and running hot to a dumpster fire that happened 30 minutes ago. Its a sight to behold.





But I’m glad they are there.

Hahahaa

What year is that ranger?[emoji1]

While we are asking

What does running your flashers allow you to do?

Saw a F150 with "paramedic" plates coming into work this morning. He was running flashers and driving a good 10-15 over posted speed.
Funny thing is he kept getting caught by lights and I stayed with him (within sight) all the way to where I turned off (good 8-10mi)

Can't imagine a paramedic being in a hurry unless he was late to work. This was no volunteer a s he was within Tyler city limits most of the time and started outside

Flashers allows nothing. It's not about whe there or not you have certain lights, but whether or not your vehicle is classified as an "emergency vehicle" by the Texas Transportation Code.

For example, medical transport vehiclesso that are hauling blood and/or organs for transplant are considered an "emergency vehicle." I once stopped a guy hauling blood for speeding. He presented me with his DL and the paperwork showing me that he was hauling blood. I immediately said, "have a good one, Sir" and sent him on his way. That's a completely unmarked vehicle, by the way with no emergency lights at all. It's in the Transportation Code.

Reason for asking - was passed going up hill, double yellow lines - 2 on coming had to hit the grass and when I got to the firehouse he was sitting talking on cell phone

By the way - I was a "boy" 70 years ago

I'd be inclined to report that to his supervisor or the sheriff.

Makes sense
