That's a nice stat but why is it ok for adults to ride motorcycles without helmets but laws force adults rising inside a car to wear a seat belt. Stupid is as stupid does. 🙄 if I'm an adult with health insurance...who does it harm if I drive without a seat belt?!?!? That's all...thanks for everything yall do at fire and emt

Research shows the approximate cost (specifications will vary) for fire apparatus at today’s prices. Many factors have affected including time, inflation and the pandemic. However, the cost of a saving a human life and/or property is priceless.
Effective on 05/01/2024:
The Public Protection Classification score, surveyed and submitted by the Insurance Services Office (ISO) in Austin, Texas, has been approved by the Texas State Fire Marshal’s Office.
Residential communities with approved fire hydrants and approved means of delivering water for fire suppression, are now a Class 2 in Sheldon Community Fire & Rescue's primary response district.
All others properties, that do not have an approved water source for fire suppression, will be a Class 4. Most insurance companies participate in the ISO rating program. Other insurance companies that do not, have their own grading methods. To verify if your premiums are affected, please check with your insurance carrier direct.
