Doctors on driving on green lights with siren?
Discussion
No it's a doctor who claims to be blue light trained and drives his own car with green lights and rear reds and a siren. Seems oddd but he passes police cars at speed according to him and he is south coast basics.I just said it's confusing and if siren should be used wth blues or greens on their own. He got a bit defensive so makes my wonder if he is taking the pee or lying.

I know a few basic doctors who are blue light trained (we can call upon them if the helicopter isn't available and their signed on) but they will all display blue lights (on their own cars) and a siren. Green lights alone should not be used with a siren, and have no official 'power'.On a few occaisions the police have followed a basics doctor (or paramedic) to the scene, just to make sure it's legit. A local guy here has a VW camper van (newer model) and he uses that when he's on call, so police have followed him a couple times to make check what's going on, they don't pull him over though.
We've also got a basics doctor here in a porsche 911 with blue lighs and siren, and he always turns up with the biggest grin on his face.

A lot of box fresh kit that's never been used in the boot 
Just for interest ,one of the first doctors to start a service to attend RTAs was a GP in Catterick Village back in the 60s .
A doctor Easton ,he used to drive a green Ford Ensign estate ,and regularly attended accidents on the nearby A1 .
I was aware of him as he was my GP at the time and I went to school with his daughter ,who was my first teenage crush .
