oh the sirens are great, makes my eye twitch more !

After having driven a fair few P1's myself, I only have 2 simple requests for drivers.

1. IF you are moving: Pull to the left of the road and maintain a constant steady speed. Don't brake suddenly or speed up.

2: IF you are stopped: stay stopped. It is far safer for me to go around you. Normally if you start moving you seem to drive exactly where I wanted to thus completly blocking off my route.
Ambul8 - if u break urself i'll fix u! Maybe...

Nothing worse than being in an ambulance, even if you're only on a P4 or 3, cars seem to race you because they think you're in a hurry, some people need to use their brains.

PS. 200 posts to me! w00t!

It happens regularly.. people pull to the left, so the **** behind decides they're going to go past all those people too (and sit on your tail).
