For using the 'jaws of life' hydraulic cutting tool to rescue someone from a smashed up car, the Town of Seabrook NH will bill your auto insurance co for $500. No insurance coverage, and town does not bother you, and just lets it slide. Just recently, in December 2017, the NH state legislature passed a new law making this NH fire dept billing procedure possible, and Gov Sununu must have signed it into law or something.

http://www.wbur.org/news/2017/12/20/...h-jaws-of-life includes a link to the Portsmouth Herald and various internet comments

Sounds similar to the NH Dept of Transportation billing your insurance co for repairing a highway safety railing after you smash it up?

For a small NH town, the 'jaws of life' cutting tool probably only gets used maybe 1-2-3 times per year, is an expensive tool, and the blades or something need to be maintained with working blades so it makes sense to bill your insurance co. ... the Good Hands people at Allstate ..... the Flo-girl at Progressive ..... the little Green Salamander at Geico ..... the 5-star General at General ..... you really do got a real good buddy at your insurance co!

If you got an older car, a little beat up, that maybe implies 'no insurance coverage-NH' the Seabrook Fire Dept will still use their cutting tool, regardless of that perception .... and no, they won't be asking for your credit card before saving you from your burning pickup truck ..... like, say buddy..... you got a credit card....before we proceed ..... no way!
