These mock crashes are held in conjunction with prom, homecoming or graduation celebrations. Once the victims were extricated from their vehicles, donated by a local salvage yard, ambulances were used to rush them away. The NSFD will help to coordinate a mock crash at any North Shore area high school, provided that the request is made at least one month in advance so that we can coordinate participation from as many local agencies as possible.
