Dublin Fire Brigade seek old cars to train up new recruits

Dublin Fire Brigade is on the look out for end of life vehicles as they train up new recruits.

The fire brigade is collecting old cars across the Dublin area for essential road traffic collision training. The vehicles will be used to assist trainee firefighters and paramedics, who will need to tackle crash sites to qualify in their new roles.

Staff will arrange for vehicle collection through a contractor, with vans, HGVs and buses also accepted as donations. It takes roughly 25 cars to train up a group of new recruits completing their two week road collision course.
