on certain shifts as the LF crew (previously mentioned), we go out for hydrant testing to check on the physical condition and the pressure. A fire hydrant is usually located behind the HDB buildings for most neighbourhood areas, and its usually on the grass patch or the near the bushes and plants. but this... this is probably the most flawed, worst chosen location to place a fire hydrant ever. it could have been there first before the carpark was built. either way... someone has been a real 'genius'. problem for this is that if there's a fire on either of these 2 blocks, it will be too hard to access this particular hydrant and we'll end up using another hydrant which is hundreds metres away. also, the water and hoses would either cause damage or smudge the residents cars which causes unwanted and unnecessary complains. for the same reason we couldn't test this hydrant.
