        They can park on my face if they need to. Absolute heroes who deserve right of way in all circumstances on every emergency call.

        Our 2 year old granddaughter has had 7 serious seizures in the last 9 months, as far as I am concerned they can park anywhere - they are saving lives nothing takes precedent

        In an emergency they can park where they like. Just don’t sit behind me at a red light with your sirens on trying to bully me into moving so I get three points!

        If they're behind you at a red light with their light on... MOVE! It's an emergency, they are allowed to go through red lights during an emergency. You're not going to get points on your licence for pulling to the side to let an ambulance through. How selfish of you.

        And the three points could, depending on your occupation, literally cost you thousands!

        What are they suppose to do? Make sure they find a car park and don't forget to pay and display!

        They can park wherever they need to! What a ridiculous question.. Why anyone in they're right mind would question this is beyond me.
