Ever since this story broke, I've had a nagging question at the back of my mind, and try as I might, it just won't go away!

If you are on a boat on The Broads, in need of assistance and The Hemsby lifeboat is not able to get there as fast as it possibly can, which would you rather happen?

A) It doesn't attend at all

B) It gets there as fast as is legally possible without Blue lights?

Arguably the law needs to be updated, but in the meantime I would have hoped it would have been B)

One last point, what's the insurance situation if a vehicle not legally entitled to use Blue lights is involved in, or causes an accident. The Police also have a tough job at times!

One of my sons who is a Paramedic told me when on Blue lights must be responding to an emergency only, otherwise insurance is invalid.

Funny I always thought of it as the exit! As I usually tripped up on the way out.

As did i but do not like the word exit in a pub.

Biggest improvement for me would be to get rid of the tripping hazard at the entrance.
