3. Yeah. I was thinking "Oh, they can get in trouble for that?"

I have seen it to get through intersections, but this guy seems to take it a few steps further by using the shoulders and letting his son drift behind him.

A few months ago some young firefighters were supposed to deliver an older fire truck to the next town over. They flipped it - one vehicle accident, late in the evening, middle of an intersection. Pics were posted on our local paper’s site and made channel 10 news. They had to close the road to get a crane in to flip it upright. Didn't hear squat about that after it happened. Wonder how fast you have to be going to flip a loaded fire truck (pumper)?

Note: For people familiar with Newark Delaware, it was at the intersection of Christina Parkway and Elkton Road at the Suburban Plaza shopping center.
