Comment from a reader on the post We Know We Are dead if there is a Fire in the Bars: I
understand what this writer is saying about bars, in general, being "fire
traps" but that is a sweeping statement and not true of many bars in the Barretto
area. I think it would be interesting to
do a layman's survey and see just how many have a proper fire exit. In light of
the terrible Dryden tragedy, I would
advise customers to note fire exits in establishments they frequent.
From the Bugle: Interesting but what is a “proper fire exit”.
It is definitely not what we generally understand as a fire exit: a dedicated unobstructed
easily-accessible door, well marked with an emergency light. By that standard,
there is no bar anywhere in Barretto that has a “proper fire exit”. If any reader knows of such a thing in Barretto, please send in a photo. We need
to lower the standard for the definition of a fire exit to: “any somewhat
accessible second exit”. But in general, we agree with you: when you walk into a bar, or any other establishment for that matter, note your fire exits and escape plan.
