August 6, 2008: Engine 1, 2 and Ladder 1 were dispatched for a serious MVA on the Mid-hudson bridge around 4pm. First due companies found a 2 car head on collision with both drivers pinned. Due to the seriousness and the fact that one car was on fire, Car 10 requested Tower Ladder 2 to assist. Both vehicles had to be worked on with extrication tools and it took approximately a half hour to remove both drivers.
