There are; They are only around in the summer. Read this job advertising for lifeguard applicants,
"Come to New York City and join a team of skilled lifeguards who safeguard our 14 miles of ocean beaches. Be part an organization of over 1,200 dedicated New York City Lifeguards with the Parks Department this summer who watch over 20 million swimmers. Although lifeguarding in New York City is challenging, it is also extremely rewarding. Lifeguards watch over skilled and unskilled swimmers and are called upon to make split second decisions that can mean the difference between life and death. As a New York City Lifeguard, you learn to work as part of a team in a variety of high pressure situations. Our beach season runs from Memorial Day weekend until Labor Day"
NYC lifeguards use department of recreation vehicles, not big yellow life guard trucks like they do on the west coast. In the off season, FDNY Rescue and Squad Companies and NYPD ESU perform water rescue duties.
In the west coast, the "beach season" last almost all year long, and full-time beach patrols are necessary. they are not on the east coast, which has a limited beach season due to our weather. |

Lifeguard vehicles are not required by states, if the state has enough money to buy the vehicles and they want to spend the money on it, there is nothing stopping them. Just like a large sheriff's office may have a large amount of undercover police cars, but a small police department may not have any undercover police cars. It all just depends on the budget. |
