“Qs” on fire trucks stand for “Quint” - they have 5 functions to them, the ability to pump water from hydrants, a stand alone water tank, fire hoses, removable ladders but the addition of a ladder that’s fixed to the truck that can telescope makes it a “quint” abbreviated as Q plus whatever truck number it has assigned to it.
Guess the truck wasn't selected and intentionally placed prominently in the bright lights and tippy top is just another common Americanism and noname's death just happened to happen when it happened.
Nothing to see here. May as well go back to sleep.
