Here’s Why You Should Never Park In Front Of A Fire Hydrant
Last week, the Anaheim Fire Department posted photos to Twitter showing the world exactly why parking in front of a fire hydrant is a very bad idea.
The images showed the busted-out windows of a car parked in front of a fire hydrant. “Ever wonder what happens when a car is parked in front of a fire hydrant and a fire breaks out?” the fire department captioned the photos. “Is a closer parking spot worth the broken windows and the citation and towing fees.” The four photos in the tweet showed a sedan’s rear side windows busted out to make way for a fire hose.
The tweet immediately went viral and drew a wide range of responses. Some said that the hose could have gone over the car, while others said that the fire department should not have shamed anyone by posting the photos. The next day, the fire department responded to backlash with a follow up tweet.
“We posted this incident to illustrate and educate, not to humiliate anyone,” they wrote. “In answer as to why break the windows instead of going under, over, or around the car… it doesn’t work. The hose needs a straight line out of the hydrant. We do not damage property unless it is needed.” Even so, others had absolutely no sympathy for the driver. “The owner of that car is totally hosed. Rightfully,” one person commented.
