There was a security camera video, the firetruck and the plane were both in motion, the plane was almost at takeoff speed and the firetruck was driving and drove into the path of the wing of the plane. The truck was only a wing length away from driving into the path of the body of the aircraft.

Yes, I saw the video, but obviously the fire truck never should have been on a live runway. Even if there weren't a catastrophic collision, these kinds of incursions of vehicles onto a live runway would be considered a major issue and result in serious safety reviews, etc. to determine what went wrong - again, even if there were no collision whatsoever.
