5 Supporting Information 1 Introduction 1.1 This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) applies to all fire service operations, which involve personnel attending the incident type RTC Persons Trapped Large Vehicles. 1.2 The purpose of this SOP is to identify and evaluate for risks specifically inherent to this type of incident. 2 Initial Actions Actions on Arrival 2.1 Ensure firefighting PPE including eye protection, disposable gloves and high visibility clothing is worn. 2.2 If the Fire Service arrives first, a warning sign e.g. Police Accident should be placed 900 metres before the incident. If due to lack of personnel, this is not achievable then a sign should be positioned 300 metres before the incident. 2.3 Appliances should be used to make the road scene safe by positioning in a fend off and making use of lights and conspicuity markings. 2.4 It is preferable to leave the hard shoulder open at a motorway incident to allow the emergency services access into the scene. Where an incident occurs on the hard shoulder, both the hard shoulder and Lane 1 should be coned off and protected by fire appliances in the Fend Off position. 2.5 Crews must where possible dismount on the safe side away from traffic. 2.6 Implement further road scene safety if Police/HATO are not in attendance. 2.7 Liaise with other services (if in attendance). 2.8 Provide hose-reel to cover the risk area, charged and tested. Portable firefighting media should additionally be provided and placed by the hosereel ready for use if required. 2.9 Eliminate ignition sources within the risk area where possible In poor visibility, appliance fixed and portable lighting should be used to illuminate the working area. Lighting is to be placed so as not to dazzle other road users Establish location of casualties. Undertake casualty assessment including gender, age, level of consciousness and any pre existing medical conditions. Check sleeping compartment in cab. Page 5 of 17
6 2.12 Formulate tactical and extrication plan (including a plan B) Consider resources in attendance, en route and what further resources may be required Brief crew Establish and equipment dump and debris dump Undertake vehicle / load stabilisation chocks and blocks, lines, strops, winch and or FRS airbags/cushions Make vehicle safe if necessary disconnect battery. Liaise with Police where possible. Where possible, disconnect batteries so that if connections can be reinstated Remember, even though the power is isolated certain safety devices if not deployed should be treated as live. Crews and others in attendance should be made aware. If available, restraint harnesses should be secured to steering wheels to reduce the risk of injury. Access to the driver s compartment should be limited to minimal essential entry only Create an outer cordon and inner cordon. Where possible, maintain a 2 metre clear zone within the inner cordon Perform extrication(s) Appoint a dedicated safety observer to evaluate the potential risk associated with the type of road, oncoming traffic, stationary traffic, weather conditions and time of day Soft and hard protection to cover exposed glass edges or sharp metal/polymer composite edges If winches are being used, the cable should have a protective sheet placed over it to minimise damage if the cable snaps If ground anchor pins are being used to secure a portable winch, try to identify possible presence of utility pipes and cables When using winches, airbags or cushions ensure crews pack as they jack When undertaking glass removal, personnel should wear respiratory protection To assist with reducing risks associated with working at height when working on vehicle cabs, ladders should be footed and when available replaced with working platforms To avoid stress, fatigue and injury when using hydraulic rescue equipment, try to rotate users and use correct manual handling techniques. Page 6 of 17
7 2.29 Spilled vehicle fuels such as petrol, diesel, oil etc., remaining on the road surface following a collision may need to be absorbed or contained to prevent entry to drains, gulley s or nearby open water surfaces Absorbent materials carried in the Environment Agency Grab pack can be used. Alternatively this task can be passed to other such vehicle recovery agents, Local Authority, HATO or the Police Inform Control of spillage, including an estimate of litres involved. The Environment Agency is to be informed if more than 25 litres is spilled. Incident Information 2.32 Identify exact location of incident Consider surrounding risks Consider effects of time of day or weather conditions into tactical plan. Resource Information 2.35 Consider use of specialist teams for stabilisation (USAR) 2.36 Liaise with other services and agencies in attendance Police should control members of the public in vicinity Consider request to update traffic matrix signs via Police / HATO Instigate hazardous materials procedures if involvement suspected and liaise with HMEPA. Significant Hazards and Control Measures Moving Traffic. Risk of impact injuries from vehicles passing risk area whilst working on or near road. Fire ignition risk. Ignition of fuel vapours during FRS work. Fend-off. Warning lights (portable and vehicle). High visibility clothing. Safe-side dismounting. Dedicated safety observer. Cones and signs if Police/HATO not in attendance. Escort public to safety. Consider use of matrix signs via Police/HATO Hose-reel: tested, charged and covering risk area. Portable firefighting media. Eliminate ignition sources in risk area. Stop/prevent leaks. Page 7 of 17
8 Fuel and other vehicle fluids may be flammable, slippery underfoot or harmful to the environment. Sharp edges and glass (shattered, smashes or cut) leading to cuts and respiratory injury. Biohazards due to the presence of body fluids. FRS Equipment Usage Potential hazards associated with the use of FRS airbags/cushions, portable and or vehicle mounted winches (i.e. unstable load), cable needling, cable snapping, cable hook not properly secured or sudden unexpected movement, use of hydraulic rescue equipment (i.e. manual handling, incorrect use, hands too close to cutting tips), injury, fatigue and high pressure oil injection injury, noise induced hearing loss. In vehicle safety features such as vehicle airbags, pre-tensioners and other SRS systems that have not deployed are liable to activate even after battery isolation. Polymer composites can contain products that can be an irritant and sensitizer. Injury and ill health can arise from contact and inhalation of glass particles, free fibres and toxic gases that Absorb flammable leaks. If possible disconnect batteries so they can be reconnected later. Consider breathing apparatus. Hose-reel Portable firefighting media. Contain leaks. Cordon areas. Winding windows down where possible. Soft and hard protection. Respiratory protection for glass removal. Use of water or film/tape in cutting areas. Inform all agencies / responders of risk. Disposable gloves. Eye protection. Decontamination and bagging procedures. Two meter clear zone within inner cordon where possible. Use of blocks and chocks in co-ordination with FRS winches, airbags/cushions. Protective sheets over winch cables. Attempt to identify utility services if using ground anchors. Hearing protection if appropriate. Battery isolation. Treat as live even when battery isolated. Inform all agencies / responders of risk. Continuing DRA during space creation activities. Monitor manual handling activities. Use of restraint harnesses if possible. Limit access to driver s compartment to minimal essential entry only. Do not improvise safety measures. Respiratory protection. Soft and hard protection. Cordons. Inform all agencies / responders of risk. Page 8 of 17
9 are released in fire. Alternative fuels and power Potential leak / ignition hazards or compromised high voltage electrics. Crash sensors often isolate power supplies. Power units have chemicals such as sodium and sulphur based in packs as well as separate traditional lead acid batteries for vehicle systems. Isolate fuels and power where possible. Seek vehicle risk information if possible. Ascertain fuel type Ascertain and avoid tank locations. Ascertain and avoid power pack / high voltage cable locations. Contain leaks. Compressed air seats may fail resulting in uncontrolled movement High pressure air systems may fail or the hoses may be damaged during extrication Dual / additional batteries and capacitors can be fitted to vehicles to power various additional systems. They can provide a source of ignition even though the main battery has been disconnected. It is also possible that additional batteries could rearm restraint systems to become live again. Gas strut dampers and hydraulic rams Gas struts are filled with an inert gas and emerge as a projectile if forced, or they are accidentally cut. Cutting hydraulic rams / hoses on vehicles with tail lifts and etc. can lead to sudden collapse. Falls from height / objects falling from height while gaining access Musculoskeletal injury due to trying to gain access to vehicle. Adjust seat position if necessary then isolate Isolation Drain tank / reservoir Hearing protection Eye protection Isolation Do not cut. Soft and hard protection. Use of Working at height platform or LOBO system Lessen loads where possible e.g. removing tailgates before roof removal. Additional space creation to facilitate Page 9 of 17
10 Arduous working conditions Protracted incidents with significant physical exertion by crew members can lead to exhaustion and possible increased likelihood of injury. Slips, trips and falls due to uneven or slippery road surfaces. Poor visibility due to weather conditions or time of day. Physical attack or verbal abuse from injured trapped casualties, family members or members of the public. manual handling operations. Follow principles of TILE (task, individual, load, environment). Rotate crews as appropriate. Request additional resources / equipment as appropriate. Scene lighting (do not dazzle other road users). Absorb/contain/cordon-off fluid spills. Cordons as appropriate. Use of appliance and portable lighting. Do not dazzle other road users. FRS violence and aggression procedures. Police assistance. Page 10 of 17
