USFA and DOT offer study of traffic incident management systems

摘要

Traffic Incident Management Systems (TIMS) guides local-level fire departments in compliance with the Department of Transportation's (DOT's) Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices and the National Fire Service Incident Management System (IMS) Consortium's Model Procedures Guide for Highway Incidents. The DOT's Federal Highway Administration and the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA), in conjunction with the International Fire Service Training Association (IFSTA), developed the report, which provides technical guidance and training programs in traffic incident management for fire and emergency service providers.
