fire vehicles can go on the grass if need be?

Considering the weight of a fire truck, probably not. And definitely not if its wet.
Sales blurb from the makers of the 45ft long Striker 4500
"The Off-Road High Mobility design is all-wheel independent and can handle just about anything nature can dish out. The apparatus are required by the FAA to manoeuvre a 30 degree approach angle, 30 degree departure angle and a 30 degree side angle. The transmission can also manage some very difficult conditions if the weather becomes uncooperative. Using an interlock system, the truck has the ability to ‘walk’ its way out of mud that is virtually up to the frame."
They do go off road. Look at the tracks made in the soft ground.
