This afternoon Southard Fire was dispatched to a two vehicle motor vehicle crash at the corner of Friendship Road and New Friendship Road. Chiefs 19-3-66, 19-3-67, 19-3-68 and Engine 19-3-75 responded to the scene. Upon arrival, Engine 19-3-75 was requested to remove the drivers door of one of the vehicles to assist with removing the driver. Howell Township First Aid and Rescue Squad #1 and Howell Police EMS Dept provided patient care and transported. Units cleared the scene shortly after.
Every intersection on New Friendship from ShopRite to Friendship is a disaster waiting to happen . Makes you wonder what was wrong with the planners. Prayers for those involved in the accident.
Hope everyone is ok
Praying for those involved. That corner is really bad... between the overgrown trees/ shrubs and the cars parked close to the corner, the sight line is horrible.
I hate that turn. You have to stick way out to see and sometimes cars parked on the road block your view.
Maybe it’s time to do something about this turn. The cars parked on the street make it impossible to see something coming until you’re all the way pulled out into the oncoming lane. Hope everyone is ok.
That intersection is horrible! Idk how many times people just pull out in front of you bc they can't see...and forget going from NF to friendship you have a floor it to get to 35 40 once you Realize you just cut someone off not intentionally...and forget friendship they fly down that street...something needs to get done!
Great job done by all our Hero's.🥰🧑🌾🧑🚒
Hope everyone is okay
🙏 all involved is ok
This morning the Southard Fire Department partnered with the Farmingdale Fire Department for some valuable training in search and rescue tactics. Crews practiced Vent-Enter-Search scenarios which can be critical to civilian rescue during an actual fire. Once completed with that station, crews trained on "The Pittsburgh Drill" which is a downed firefighter scenario where the rescue team follows a hose line to the downed firefighter, they must then secure the firefighter with a rescue rope and work together to remove them back through the obstacles which includes a tight tunnel, a steep wedge, and a wall breach prop. Crews from both departments did excellent, and we look forward to training together again soon.
Thanks for the invite, Great morning of training! Looking forward to another event soon.
Last evening we were fortunate enough to attend Monmouth County’s Tribute in Lights that shined bright for all first responders, showing appreciation to those we lost and to those who continue to work tirelessly to keep us safe and out for harm’s way. The colors included Red 🔴 for our firefighters, Blue 🔵 for our police officers, White ⚪️ for EMS and hospital workers and Green 🟢 for our military. We will always remember, and never forget.

Where did this take place, would have loved to see it
Beautiful!!! Thank you!!!
Today we honor those lost in that faithful event on 9/11, and the 2,753 people lost that day. Of those the 343 brothers and sisters in the Fire service lost that day. The 23 NYPD officers lost that day. And the 37 Port Authority officers lost that day. Remember all of those we lost, especially those that walked up those stairs as so many were running down. Remember that sometimes what we do shouldn’t be based on what we get out of it, but how it can help those around us. Never Forget.
🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸Thank you🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸 God Bless America 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸Never Ever Forget🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸United We Stand🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
