Description
Snoqualmie Pass Fire and Rescue is getting prepared to assist drivers as we head into the summer season. Their fire crews have been taking part in an extrication training, so that they can practice best techniques to get people who have been pinned in their cars following a crash to safety. They do this training twice a year, one time ahead of the winter season and one time ahead of the summer season.
Snoqualmie Pass Fire and Rescue Chief Jay Wiseman said when they respond to car crashes where people need to be cut out of the cars, speed is often a factor.
“The speed limit on Snoqualmie Pass is about 65 miles an hour, most people do 70 to 80,” said Chief Jay Wiseman.
