Reminder: Green Flashing Light is a Volunteer Firefighter

Volunteer light is the same as any emergency light

 

With Volunteer Week, its more important than ever to remember the large workforce that is volunteer firefighters.

Nearly 60% of Ontario’s firefighters are volunteers who commit almost full time to their duties.

Today, many still forget that a flashing green light on the roads is a sign of a volunteer firefighter answering a call and needs to be treated just like any emergency vehicle.

Residents are reminded when you see a flashing green light on the roads – pull over and allow the vehicle to pass.
