While we're on the subject of acronyms, I heard the OPP use the term "send to FSU" a couple of weeks ago. Sorry, it was too long ago for me to remember the context in which it was used but I'm sure the SU is for support unit, just not sure what the F represents.

Typically with an MCI, Georgian CACC will respond with their MCU.
