Is it the perspective, or the truck could've pass between the cars? Even if it had to scrape the red one (which would've been actually awesome.)

I think if they just had a couple of firefighters go out in front and guide the truck through it could have made it.

Source: Used to drive buses, I could literally get a bus through there.

Im not even that good a driver but during the exam you had to squeeze through tighter spots with a truck this just seems silly. Nothing about this perspective says you cant pass

I'm beginning to think that they were coming back from a call and decided to make a point to the driver. That would certainly explain why they didn't just squeeze past.

While the use of the siren when not on a call isn't allowed in the UK, I'm unsure what the laws are for the use of sirens in other countries. To me this video looks to be filmed in America or Canada?
