I want to respond to all the people critiquing the fire department. I’m no fire officials, so I don’t know exactly what official protocol is but the fire department knew ahead of time that everyone had gotten off the bus and were safely away. No one was hurt, or even hospitalized. Believe me the fire department showed up very quickly on the scene. If anyone reading this has experience, fighting these types of fires, please comment.

To think, people wonder why school buses in most states don't have seat belts, this is why. These things go up like mobile homes! At least it was only a Blue Bird.

Why is there seemingly no effort to put the fire out? The flames are rapidly approaching the fuel tank. what happens then? We didn't get to see that. Was it a diesel or propane bus? How did such a raging fire get started? The bus looks to bee fairly new. As usual, tons of unanswered questions.

The bluebird buses have switched mostly to propane, maybe there’s a different way of attacking a fire with that fuel source? Not sure…

@@firealarm8not all of them. You can tell what fuel the bus runs on by the color of the bluebird logo at the front on each side of the bus, at the roof line. The standard diesel bluebird bus will have a black colored bluebird logo. The gasoline powered bluebird bus will have a blue colored bluebird logo. The propane powered bluebird bus will have a green colored bluebird logo. There you have it. With the fire already engulfing the front of the bus, there is no way to tell from this video alone what fuel the bus used.

It takes minutes for a bus to be fully involved. I was a school bus driver, and it doesn't take a lot for a wiring problem or diesel fire to threaten lives.

@@A_Bit_of_Thought Good point. The electric buses will be coming in a year or two as school boards who have bought the climate change Kool Aid get on the bandwagon. We switched to propane buses in our district this year and it's been a nightmare. They're breaking down right and left and we've had one fire seriously injuring a mechanic. The government grant turned out to be a Trojan horse. No surprise.

Thankfully this wasn't a house fire. They took too much time : #1. Getting anywhere near the scene. #2. Doing anything even close to trying to control unnecessary traffic through the scene (hazardous smoke with cancer causing chemicals). And #3, If the Incident Commander was there, why weren't the fire apparatus close behind him when he arrived? It seemed a lot like the Keystone Firefighters were in charge, rather than a bunch of professionals!.

@@erickutepow No, but I have a former neighbor who is. We have discussed what happens in a fire. Many items used today give off toxic fumes, especially materials made from petroleum products. For instance foam used in upholstery is made of gasoline byproducts. I'm a former commercial truckdriver, who hauled hazardous materials. I used to read my handbook to familiarize myself with the dangers of what I might haul, and what could react if hauled together.

W.T.H., What was the guy in the turn-out gear looking for? And the other two idiots standing on the side of the ditch? Why were they even there? It seems that the whole group showed up to watch the fire. Also, why waste fuel, and put mileage on the equipment, if they were just going to stand around? They should have to lose what they were paid to stand around. They should have to repay the cost of fuel, and wear and tear on the equipment to the tax payers. Do your job, or find another one!!!!!.
@trekkie1995

Volunteer firefighter/emt and I have your answer. The one in the turnout and white helmet is the chief. His job is to do a 360° walkaround so he knows what they have, where the exposures are, what the threats are, and if there are hydrants. His is also the incident commander to let incoming crews know where he wants them and is telling the crews where he wants them and what he wants. As IC (incident commander) he should not be involved in the fire suppression. Although it does happen it is not best practice for the IC to be involved in fire suppression. The other 2 were the EMS crew. They were checking to see if there were patients. What he video does not show is the engine crew pulling hoseling and attacking the fire which appears to happen after the end of the video.
