My goodness there are some stupid commens on here. As the title description says "example of a typical BLR" the clue is there EXAMPLE ! Emergency service drivers have to periodically undergo blue light run assesments in order to carry on being a blue light driver, they have to show they are capable of driving in all types of surroundings - driving conditions and traffic. This is not just a jolly around the countryside and towns wasting taxpayers money ffs.

@urbex2007 You clearly have no advanced level driver training. 10:49 - no one was put in danger. 14:40 not careless driving, it's planned and well executed as the safest route through. The requirements of a keep left sign do not apply to emergency vehicles. 24:40 - no one was forced to do anything, the driver was very restrained, not even using sirens and not advancing on the vehicle. All of this would be entirely in keeping with my training to the highest level available in the UK
@vicfire12 жыл бұрын
I don't think you understand. This "typical shout" is only for making sure drivers can safely and responsibly drive the emergency vehicles in traffic of many densities. Light runs are usually recorded for later reference - they are usually a long length anyway. There was no emergency that the West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service were responding to in this certain appliance at this time. Furthermore, there is no zooming in at 9:35 that is clearly visible.
@K9explo45913 жыл бұрын
@urbex2007 I would take issue with your criticisms. 1. No one put in danger at junction , No vehicles emerging intending to turn left no unseen vehicles approaching either otherwise pedestrian would not be casually walking across, driver kept to centre of road until past junction. 2. lawful for driver to use other side of island, there is no one in sight! safer to use opp side, than having to slow down and jink between island and white car at speed in a vehicle loaded with water
@vicfire12 жыл бұрын
The main purpose of "blue light runs" are to make the emergency vehicle drivers aware of possible dangers when out in real emergencies. It also presents the opportunity for drivers to be assessed on how skilled they are at driving with their lights and sirens on. Even though this is a "fake" emergency, it could well lead to more people's lives being saved

I think it helps people wake up a bit more, as well as makes it easier for road users and pedestrians to pick up where it is coming from. A constantly wailing siren might be a background noise unnoticeable to some (worrying if they are driving, I know!) but also changing tone and its sudden wail from off to on can hep a driver pin point the direction the fire engine is coming from a little better too I think.
