Yesterday on BBC breakfast at 08:20 Sam Cockerill and Andy Lambert did the industry proud from the hard work that has been done getting the use for red lights on to Rescue Recovery Operators to use. Thank you for what you have achieved. Its now up to the industry to implement them correctly.

Thank to Sam Cockerill and all involved in getting Red lights for Rescue Recovery Operators

The Use of Red Flashing Lamps by Roadside Rescue & Recovery Operators After many years of campaigning by the Independent vehicle recovery industry it appears that the subject of recovery operators being able to use red flashing lights when at the scene of a disabled vehicle at the side of the road has finally been publicly acknowledged by the Government and that we need the use of red lights to be permitted in order to better protect our roadside staff in the course of their duties in providing an essential service to the motoring public at the roadside. The Policy Paper – Plan for Drivers released by Department for Transport today (2nd October 2023) includes the following statements: • Safer breakdown recoveries. Permitting red flashing lights for breakdown vehicles, helping to protect recovery drivers by making them more visible at the roadside. What they are planning to do next within the policy is: • Road recovery operators provide a crucial service to stranded drivers and support the economy by getting goods moving and preventing the build-up of congestion on our busy road network to help journeys flow more smoothly. To help keep them safe and get people moving again when vehicles break down, we will permit the use of rear-facing red flashing lamps by road recovery operators.

Dashcam footage has been released of a car crashing into a broken-down vehicle on a busy road in Norwich. The crash happened after a driver failed to notice a car that had stopped on the inside lane of the A1270 Broadland Northway, also known as the NDR. After the collision, the footage filmed from an approaching vehicle shows debris and dirt being thrown high into the air and across the road. The driver suffered serious injuries in the collision, which happened in January. Lucky the person that had broken down was away from there car. https://www.itv.com/news/anglia/2023-02-17/dashcam-footage-shows-car-smashing-into-broken-down-vehicle
