Most French fire services have not yet got around to installing rescue equipment for road accidents and extrication on all (or most) of their fire pumpers, and they still tend to rely on medium-sized dedicated road rescue trucks like this one.

I believe we can expect to see a transition in the future, which will rxpand this capability to general-purpose pumpers, as has happened or is happening in many other countries.
