Apparatus driver was a 22 yoa male. While responding, he hit the firehouse, tearing down the bay door and ripping away lots of sheet metal. Driver failed to stop and continued his response. Two miles down the road, driver put the Officers side of the apparatus off the paved surface. Driver over-corrected and put the apparatus in the ditch on the opposite side of the road. Driver sustained non-life threatening injuries and transported by ambulance. CHIEFS: WHO is driving YOUR apparatus and WHAT are their qualifications? BE SURE!
