We've spent countless hours training our firefighters to perform operations in a specific, safe way; yet, some of them still take risks that are totally unnecessary. We've purchased for them the finest firefighting gear, and some of them do not wear it on emergencies. We've provided them with radios, and they don't communicate. We've had our apparatus built with antilock brakes and seat belts, because we know that driving is hazardous; and they just drive faster and don't wear the seat belts. We tell them to assess and balance risk; instead, they seem to seek it. We have written policies that say "don't," and they sometimes still "do."
