Guntersville Fire/Rescue

2 weeks ago

~WARNING~ Although this is just a simulation and no students are actually injured in this demonstration, the images in this post can be difficult and disturbing to some.

Prom week is upon us here in Guntersville and this morning, multiple agencies from our area participated in what is called the "Prom Promise". This scenario gives students a real-to-life look at our response to a motor vehicle collision (MVC) when alcohol is involved. During the scenario, the students witnessed an accident scene where fire department personnel had to remove doors and tops of vehicles to extricate patients allowing for medical care. The MVC scenario had multiple injuries, including one fatality.

As first responders, we experience these scenes all too often, and our hope is that the real-to-life scenario seen today will make students more aware of thier choices, not only for this special week, but for the rest of their lives.

I you haven't already talked to your teen about the dangers of driving under the influence, now is the time. ... See MoreSee Less

Good for you! When I was young, my father worked for a towing and salvage business and he would bring me to see the cars that had been involved in drunk driving accidents. Nothing else leaves quite the Same impression.

Thank you for your service and message to help our children.

Thank you GHS, Guntersville Fire/Rescue, Guntersville Police, and all the people in the community that care about our children. You took the time to show what can happen when people drink and drive. Thank you.

Thats awesome! Surely the kids got the picture with this. Thanks for your service!

Great job !!

What a wonderful thing to do. Most of the time seeing is believing. Sure hope it works for all of these young people. There's lots more fun to have and be able tie remember without alchaol

Great simulation ! Hopefully the kids "get it" and this simulation puts a dent in that " I'm invincible" attitudes kids have at that age....... Still see a lot of kids driving with face buried in their cell phone.. Just as bad as dui

Thank you for providing this important message to our youth!!

It was so real, I cry just being there seeing this, Please don't drink and drive, be safe, we love you all

Kudos to those who staged this eye opening event for our kids—wish I’d been there to see—they said it was very powerful and it looked that way from what we saw on news. Such a big effort and so many involved—amazing!

Good job cuz
