Why do I see the fire trucks out when there is not an emergency?

The firefighters are always ready to respond to emergencies. The crews are always left together so they may be doing training, fire inspections, pre fire plans, plant tours, installing smoke detectors, or simply out grabbing their lunch or dinner. We strive to keep all trucks inside their main response area when feasible. The main misconception is that when a truck is not at the station they are not able to respond to "my" residence.
