Impressive driving on show from Ivybridge Fire Station crew

Ivybridge Fire Crew has shown off their impressive driving skills on a recent call. 

Ivybridge Fire Station crew have been showing off how they're able to manoeuvre their very large fire engine through our very narrow lanes and villages this week. 

careful manoeuvring - credit Ivybridge Fire Station

On a post to their social media pages, they wrote: "Driving the appliance provides it's own challenges whether it be on the dual carriageway or through our narrow lanes, today some excellent driving to a domestic smoke alarm sounding albeit parking didn't leave to much room to open the doors!"

Always reassuring to know that our emergency services can get to us, even in the most hard to access places in the South Hams.
