abstract="Using a physically based computer model to predict alarm response travel times, it is shown that the road performance level of a fire engine can have a significant impact. The discussion includes a description of the model, how results from it compare with actual road tests, how it is used to analyze response time sensitivities over a wide range of road and vehicle related conditions, and finally how it is used to aid fire service officials in the specification and procurement of fire engines.<p />",
