On Tuesday May 22, members of the Brewster Fire Department participated in the Nauset Regional High School Mock Crash program. The annual exercise is designed to offer the senior class a realistic and insightful view of the consequences that can occur when driving while impaired, distracted, or speeding. To meet this goal public safety officials from Eastham, Brewster, Truro, Wellfleet, and Orleans staged a powerful and realistic response to a catastrophic motor vehicle crash involving multiple victims and a DUI arrest. The Town of Brewster sends the largest number of students to the regional High School and our department feels fortunate to have the opportunity to participate in such an extremely critical life safety lesson that if followed will have a life-long, positive effect on the individual student’s ability to prevent these tragedies from occurring.
