BMW R 1200 RT puts the fires out

The modern fire-fighting arsenal is made up of many varied appliances, from a handheld extinguisher to the huge all-wheel drive trucks that guard our airports and other industrial infrastructures. All have their place in the complex world in which we live. Congested inner-city environments present their own distinct challenges with narrow, crowded streets and high-density housing. Any fire needs to be addressed quickly, but getting large fire trucks on scene takes time and in a fire situation the earlier action is taken, the less the chance of loss of property ? or more importantly, life. Rapid response is vital.
