A proposito di questo titolo
Why are fire trucks red? Most people assume it’s about visibility, but the truth is more about history and tradition than science.
In this episode of Beyond the Nozzle, we dive into:
How volunteer fire brigades in the 1800s painted rigs bright red for pride and identity
Why red was one of the cheapest and most available paints of the time
How red became locked into fire service tradition and public expectation
The studies that showed lime-yellow and green trucks can actually be more visible
Why red started it, but other colors are perfectly fine today
👉 Fire Safety Tip: No matter what color the fire truck is, when you see lights and hear sirens, pull to the right and stop. That second of awareness could save someone’s life.
