What's more, this wasn't even a life or death scenario. Just a suspect car. The fact that the ANPR was faulty is neither here nor there. He needlessly put lives at risk, and someone died. I think time in jail is more than warranted in this case.

He reacted to information given and followed accepted protocol .The decision, was his to make ,he made what he thought was the right decision given his local knowledge and got punished for it and because of cases like this many drivers are scared to pursue criminals or drive fast to emergencies and given that emergency drivers have a specific response time they are stuck between a rock and a hard place
