And this from Florida: Man drives into a parked fire truck http://www.nwfdailynews.com/news/truck-24839-car-fire.html
An Ocean City-Wright fire truck escaped damage Monday morning after being struck by a small car while parked at the scene of an emergency.
The truck was on Green Street with its flashers on and its emergency lights rotating at about 3:30 a.m. when the accident occurred. No one was injured.
"For no apparent reason, it looked like he was going very slowly and drove into our fire truck," said Battalion Chief Terry Klein. "Normal people would have gone around the vehicle."
He said the car ended up with the front of the car wedged under the truck's rear bumper.
The Florida Highway Patrol was called to investigate.
