Background:
- As a result of rapid urbanization, there are many narrow and complicated roads in a city.
- Due to lack of parking space, vehicles parked at the backside obstruct traffic.
- It is impossible, in reality, to expand existing fire-fighting routes. Furthermore, deteriorating traffic congestion and illegal parking/stoppage make it worse.
- It is impossible for a fire-fighting vehicle to reach high places due to lack of driveways.
- Since most roads are non-legal, they are not properly regulated by administrative authorities.
Major Features:
- It is possible to perform fire-fighting, rescue, and first-aid activities not only upon receiving a report but also in a patrol. Cooperation is possible between different district boundaries.
- While a pump truck would need a hose extension since it cannot pass through a narrow road and reach the target area, a concept car is highly adaptive either on a wide road or in a side street.
- It can utilize various types of water sources. (well, river, seawater, fire hydrant, etc. in case of applying water pump).
- A long-distance transportation is possible(less loss: in case of applying water pump)
