My first aid training is sadly lapsed (I really should remedy this), and my emergency preparedness training has mostly come from reading Jim McDonald's "Trauma and You" posts on Making Light.
I also lack fire extinguisher. >.>
However! I have seen, usually from a distance, several burning or (spectacularly) burnt out vehicles in and around the GTA. My count is kind of fuzzy. (I did not actually see the garbage truck collide with the paint truck -- the combination of which melted the asphalt off the highway -- but it was a rather freak occurrence... of the kind that seems to happen frighteningly often on the 400-series highways here in Ontario. )
