Honda Canada Inc. has recently informed the Office of the Fire Marshal
that an emergency response guide has been produced for the Insight, their
new gasoline-electric hybrid automobile. The guide describes the vehicle,
shows where key components are located, outlines potential hazards and
explains emergency procedures to be used to handle the vehicle after an
accident and/or rescue vehicle occupants.
Honda recommends that emergency response personnel follow standard
procedures developed by their own organization for assessing situations and
dealing with potential hazards, as well as the procedures and precautions
contained in the guide.
The
Insight Emergency Response Guide is available on the Honda Canada web
site.
In the next few months, Honda Canada Inc. will be sending a copy of the
guide to each fire department.
Small quantities of the guide can be ordered by writing to Honda Canada
Customer Relations, 715 Milner Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, M1B 2K8, or by
calling 1-888-9-HONDA-9 (1-888-946-6329).
