Case For Firefighting Motorcycles

Firefighting Motorcycles has the smallest volume, the fastest speed, the cheapest price, the highest efficiency, the greatest effect.

Four-wheel-drive pickup trucks and SUVs are a staple in fire department fleets across the United States for a variety of uses such as wildland firefighting and rescue and EMS responses. Medic units in urban areas have long been using bicycles to provide rapid care before an ambulance arrives.

A fire bike — as it is more commonly known around the world — is as the name suggests: a motorcycle used by a fire department. Fire departments in Japan, Singapore, and Brazil are using fire bikes to reduce response times in high traffic congestion areas of major cities.
