See it: Rescue of motorcyclist after 100 foot plunge in San Bernardino Mountains
CAJON PASS, Calif – San Bernardino County Fire Rescue teams were called to a vehicle collision in a remote area of the San Bernardino Mountains for a crash involving a motorcycle, a half-mile off the Cleghorn Trail.
A motorcycle rider had gone approximately 100 feet off the side of the road, sustaining moderate injuries, according to San Bernardino County Fire Officials. Due to the rugged and challenging terrain of the area, specialized Urban Search and Rescue teams were dispatched to assist.
The video shows first responders using a rope rescue system to safely raise the rider back up to the road.
Officials sent two ARVs (All-terrain Response Vehicles) to help in the rescue efforts because of the mountainous conditions. ARVs allow rescuers to reduce rescue times and ensure victims reach a hospital faster.

"On several different incidents they (ARVs) have enabled crews to access difficult terrain, shuttle personnel and patients, and transport equipment more efficiently," said a statement from San Bernardino County Fire Officials.
Due to a fast response from rescue teams, the victim was ultimately transported by ambulance to a local trauma center to be assessed for further injuries.Original article source: See it: Rescue of motorcyclist after 100 foot plunge in San Bernardino Mountains

Fuel tanker erupts in flames after crashing into Broward County bus on I-595, authorities say
A gasoline tanker caught fire Monday morning after sideswiping a parked transit bus and crashing into a median wall on Interstate 595, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. The crash happened around 10 a.m. on the westbound lanes of I-595, just east of Southwest 136th Avenue. Authorities said the tanker sideswiped a disabled and unoccupied Broward County Transit bus that was stopped on the left shoulder, then veered into the median and struck the median wall. The vehicle continued traveling west for about a tenth of a mile before bursting into flames, police said. Davie Police and Fire Rescue responded to the scene and extinguished the fire. The driver of the tanker was transported to Broward Health Medical Center for treatment. His condition has not been released. Westbound traffic on I-595 was diverted to State Road 84 at the Hiatus Road exit as crews worked the scene. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.

Wendy's employee accidentally crashes car into Oakland Park restaurant where he works, Broward officials say
A Wendy's restaurant in Oakland Park sustained significant damage Sunday morning after an employee accidentally drove into the building, authorities said. The crash happened around 8:18 a.m. at the Wendy's located at 1040 E Commercial Boulevard, according to Oakland Park Fire Rescue. Crews responded to reports of a vehicle into a building and arrived to find a car lodged inside the lobby area of the restaurant. No patrons were inside at the time of the crash. The only person injured was the driver — an employee of the restaurant — who sustained minor injuries and refused transport to a hospital, fire officials said. Tables and chairs inside the fast food location were visibly smashed in the aftermath. Broward Sheriff's Office deputies and fire rescue crews remained on the scene, and BSO is leading the investigation. A city official was requested to inspect the damage and determine whether the building is safe to remain open for business.
