Is this crazy or what

RE: Is this crazy or what
I work for the fire dept. just outside of Vancouver. A fire truck in Richmond(a neighbouring city) stopped for a car accident on the freeway. The driver had the running lights on, the emergency lights on, reflective caution cones placed and was parked off to the side totally on the wide freeway shoulder. A drunk driver came up and blasted through the cones while driving on the shoulder and plowed into the back of the fire truck. The drunk driver was awarded 3/4s of a million dollars as the fire dept. was told by the judge that they did not have large flashing amber lights on the rear of the truck. Even though public vehicles are not required to have them, the fire truck was, as the judge said, any vehicle that makes frequent stops in it's line of work must have them. Even the motor vehicle act did not mandate the amber lights. By the end of the week after the ruling, every fire truck in the province got 2 large flashing amber lights on the rear of the trucks.
