This is bull how can an emergency services driver kill a member of their own family or a friend when responding to a call, what utter tosh the person who wrote that is an idiot.
They should be prosecuted for killing someone such as an innocent pedestrian at high speed without using their blues and twos as per the below.
Quote:
PC Dougal was travelling without blue lights or a siren when he knocked down 16-year-old Hayley Adamson.
PC John Dougal has been jailed for 3 years for killing Hayley Adamson
She died instantly after she was hit by PC Dougal's Volvo estate as she crossed a residential road in Newcastle's West End last May.
He denied causing death by dangerous driving, claiming his speed in a 30mph zone was justified as he was following a suspect car.
But he was convicted by a jury at Newcastle Crown Court last month.
