52 from engine 8,
03:01
when you come down the highway, it might be easier for you to come down the shoulder side of the highway and then cut up in front of engine 52.
03:10

All right,
04:54
assuming that you're coming eastbound,
04:58
you'll probably have trouble with traffic.
05:00
Myself and Ladder 52 worked our way along the shoulder,
05:04
crossed over the Patterson ramp, and then if you'll go up in front of the accident scene that's going to be the safest place for you to park, right now one patient and they'll be on the Jersey wall, lane number one.

or getting turned around on a window where we'll be there. 5.

Engine 52 from Command, how are y'all doing over there with the lighter crew?
