      Umm....weren't you just talking about the 'beautiful line of snow' headed in your direction? LOL

  3. The airbags run off of capacitors. In laymans terms, a capacitor works as a battery, holding a charge until it is needed. Once the battery cable is severed, these will drain, but depending on size/design it can take anywhere from 5-30min. Thats why there is still a risk. I think, but am not certian, that these depoly with a lower (albeit still dangerous) velocity than the drivers, due to having a bigger space between the passenger and the glovebox. If you look the steering wheel can be a foot or two closer than the dashboard, so the drivers airbag needs to cover that space more rapidly.
  4. Could someone post the raw link or title of the video? The firewall here blocks embedded videos.
  5. I'll call you tomorrow in the daytime Ruff, at work on some OT right now. Thanks!

  9. WAY to early right now to pin something down, BUT, don't be surprised if we get a significant (6"+) snow over the weekend.

      Snow is not 'beautiful' it is not 'pretty' and it serves no useful purpose!

      Snow is an evil prank perpetrated upon us by those mean ol’ Canadians!

      As far as I’m concerned they can keep their ‘cold Arctic wind’ to themselves!

  11. Completely. I dealt with an insurance company with hiring issues. Unequivocaly false. It will pose a problem up to 5 years later, even if it falls off. Your record will always show the chemical test failure suspension. Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk
  12. I guess I should add also, if you're in a more rural part of the state that uses squads, you stand a better chance than an urban part. Around central indiana basics play the ambulance driver role quite a bit. I have a friend that got a DUI 07-08ish....he just in the last couple months started driving for his company. He was able to get a job because he was a paramedic. An ALS or BLS transfer he could take in no worries. I'm not trying to scare you or talk you out of anything, but I don't wana paint a picture of sugar and peppermint either. If you have any questions about the state certs and what not feel free to shoot me a PM. One last thing... around the time you would be finishing up, Indiana may be in the transition to becoming a National Registry state. I have no experience with NR so I don't know if that will pose a problem or not. Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk
  13. This is not felony, correct? You will have to check yes on the "crimes other than minor traffic" box on your application. I don't know anyone personally that has gone through this process, but in some research with the EMS Comission I have done on other matters, I have learned it can be a lengthy process. I don't know how that will turn out. It will be up to the comission. Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:00pm Phone: 1-800-666-7784 or (317) 233-0208 -- E-Mail: emscertifications@dhs.in.gov As far as employment.... your milage will vary. You won't be cleared by any insurance company to drive an ambulance until at least 2012. That means an employer will have to look and see if they have room to hire someone who can't drive. Your chances would be better as a paramedic. Then you have a skillset that the transport companies can use more than a EMT-B. I would completely rule out any government/911 job for the next two to five years, at least in central Indiana. You can try, someone might take a chance on you, but I know what the job market is like here. Why should a company take a chance on you, when I go in and apply and not have any job restrictions? Get your EMT cert, try for a job in an ER or tech position for a couple of years, use your skills and futher your education to make yourself more marketable. And for crying out loud don't even get stopped by the police again. ALSO: When it is supposed to fall off your record, I would go to the BMV HQ or their website, and order your driving record. That way you know what is on there, and what your prospective employers and their insurance companies will see. Above all else, don't be shady. If you lie, or bend the truth, they will find out. Trust me, I did backgrounds for a couple of years on my voluenteer FD, and its not hard at all to find this stuff.
  14. wow..... Community was deep tonight......
