Las Vegas Valley Apparatus

[Dickey]

 

Just spent the day in Wisconsin and it always find it odd that all of their fire apparatus are red lighting when in Illinois we use just about everything (red, blue, green, white).  Plenty of folks do green on a front flasher to emulate Chicago.  Not judging but it takes me a moment to realize why.

 

Wisconsin statutes govern what colors can be used by certain agencies. Red and Blue is strictly for law enforcement in WI. Red and Amber only can be used by tow trucks, shops/maintenance can only use Amber, and fire/EMs can use red, white, and amber.

 

Since blue is law enforcement only, it freaks me out sometimes to see blue on a fire truck or ambulance...
