Ride alongs with the Fire Explorers?
I just recently got the position for the San Bernardino County Fire Department in Southern California, and I was wondering what are the steps to be able to perform ride alongs on engines and trucks and roughly how long does it take?
That all depends on the departments rules and policies, it varies from company to company. At my volunteer company, anybody that rides needs to go through basic firefighting, vehicle rescue & 1st aid/CPR training. They also need to know the trucks
