Rumour has it that, in an effort to cut costs, greenhouse gases and appeal to the younger computer-literate generation, UK Fire Services are to trial a new technique in driver training.
No longer will drivers need to pass an EFAD (Emergency Fire Appliance Driver) course. Instead they will be required to take a computer-based test.
If you think you've got what it takes to drive a fire engine on blue lights through heavy traffic, why not take the test now…
Just follow this link…
Note: For the gullible please note that this is a wind-up and that UK Fire and Rescue Services are not, repeat not, using this to teach their turnout drivers. Or are they?
