Emergency Vehicles And Other Road Users

EDM number 2854 in 2005-06, proposed by Richard Younger-Ross on 25/10/2006.

That this House welcomes the Government's support for the Emergency Workers Bill, which creates an offence of `hindering' an emergency worker, but believes that the day-to-day hindrance of emergency vehicles by inconsiderate drivers is unlikely to lead to a prosecution; and therefore calls on the Government to take action to educate drivers in how to respond to emergency vehicles, in particular by including such advice in the Highway Code, and to make it part of the driving test.

This motion has been signed by a total of 41 MPs.
