 No, this is not a joke (at least, I don't think so). Here's a photo of some Chinese Firefighters and their motorcycles. Not what you'd expect, compared to other countries. Somehow, it doesn't make sense to me..... where's the firefighting equipment ? To me, it looks like a fire-red taxi with red gyroscope !! Someone want to explain this .... | Local residents try newly distributed fire motorcycles during a training session in Fenyi county of Xinyu city in east China's Jiangxi Province, Thursday, Jan. 19, 2006. Fire fighting equipment as fire motorcycles and pumpers are distributed in 10 suburban villages around the city according to a enhanced fire control project launched by the local government. Local residents are trained to cope with the potential fires as traditional Chinese Spring Festival (Lunar New Year) approaches when more fire incidents occur than usual as firecrackers serve as an indispensable festive ambience booster.
