Tour Scotland Travel Video Police Vehicles Responding To Emergency Edinburgh Road Perth Perthshire

Tour Scotland travel video Blog of four Police vehicles moving fast down Edinburgh Road on visit to Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. Obviously responding to an Emergency Call. A weather warning was in place today for high winds, causing widespread travel disruption. Police Scotland, Scottish Gaelic: Poileas Alba, legally named the Police Service of Scotland, is the national police force of Scotland. Police Scotland has a fleet of approximately 3,750 vehicles. Almost all of Police Scotland's high visibility marked vehicles are marked up in a half Battenburg style. When driving you should look and listen for ambulances, fire engines, police, doctors or other emergency vehicles using flashing blue, red or green lights and sirens, or flashing headlights, or traffic officer and incident support vehicles using flashing amber lights. When one approaches do not panic. Consider the route of such a vehicle and take appropriate action to let it pass, while complying with all traffic signs. If necessary, pull to the side of the road and stop, but try to avoid stopping before the brow of a hill, a bend or narrow section of road.
