Your comments: How to react to blue lightspublished at 17:45 Greenwich Mean Time 10 January 2018

Gabrielle Willets said: "I pulled over to let an approaching ambulance pass only for the driver of the car behind me to overtake me and then they saw that ambulance and eventually they pulled over."
While Glenis Woodings called for some calm. "It's ok to say the accidents were not the Ambulances fault, and I am sure we all try our best to accommodate them. But just sometimes you can't just get out of the way instantly. And feel Ambulance drivers should realise this. I know they are in a rush as someone life could be at stake."

Police 'followed policy' in 999 call investigationpublished at 16:36 Greenwich Mean Time 10 January 2018
Amy Woodfield
BBC NewsAn investigation into the way Leicestershire Police handled a 999 call from a man later found dead in a car park has found the force "followed policy and procedure".
Image source, Leicestershire PolicePromise Ndlovu made an emergency call from his mobile phone at 00:19 on 29 October 2016.
He told the operator he was being held against his will and sounded "increasingly distressed" before the call ended about six minutes later.
He didn't give his name or location but police were able to find out who the phone belonged to and sent officers to his home address and to the area the call was made.
Medical evidence indicated that Mr Ndlovu probably died during the 999 call.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) - previously known as the Independent Police Complaints Commission - believes efforts to locate Mr Ndlovu were hampered by the size of the area and nature of the buildings.
The IOPC investigator also found the force experienced difficulty contacting its on-call kidnap and extortion expert that night.
Last month three men were convicted for their involvement in the death of the 40-year-old and are due to be sentenced on Friday.
