It cannot not be assumed that ARFF will be close by as the brakes are parked and the they will "have your back". It could have been a very different outcome if the the ARFF had to go from a standing start in their shed.

We have to wait for the report, but this event could well turn out to be the exception rather than the rule when all the facts are known.
All great points.

In summary, "we all need to wait for the FACTS to come out before we either hang the bastard or nominate him for saint-hood".
