we should make houses safer, AND prevent firefighters from interfering in housefires.
You know how we make houses safer from fire? Fire Code and the IBC. Know how who enforces Fire Code? Fire Marshall.
And it's not only fires that require emergency vehicle access. If an ambulance is called to your house, the FD needs to know they can actually get it there.
And what if there's a utility outage and an excavator and crane are necessary? What if the street needs repair and a concrete truck has to get access? There's all kinds of reasons large vehicles need to access homes.
And none of that makes the streets less-safe. It increases visibility and gives more maneuvering room in an emergency.
