Another Critical Truck Failure – What will it take Minister Symes? – Your actions show you just do not care about this dangerous situation impacting our Community & Firefighters – Fail!

During this morning’s Gym fire in Dandenong a Fire Truck in attendance broke down. 87B failed last night at a gym fire. During the operation while pumping it kept shutting off. It could not be rectified. There were no replacement trucks so truck and crew went off-line. All operations on that sector had to be shut down to remove the faulty pump. Victoria is in the grip of a fire truck crisis. Our fleet is crumbling, and our communities are paying the price. What will it take for Jacinta Alan to act on this increasingly dangerous situation?
