Default OT Great Story.

Hi All

A bit off topic but...............

Apparently true story from my daughter who is a EMT2 with London Ambulance.

WPC driving a panda car is involved in a RTA, her panda badly damaged. Two
coppers arrive in a patrol car, remove her from the wrecked panda and sit
her in the back of their patrol car to keep warm while they sort things out.

Paramedic arrives and gives coppers a serious bollocking for moving the
WPC - who could have had neck or spinal injuries.

Paramedic then examines WPC and decides that she could well have neck or
spinal injuries. He tells the police that the only safe way to remove her
is on a spinal board with a neck brace - and the only way to do that - is to
remove the roof of the police car!

Police protest loudly, but in these cases the paramedics word is final, so
the fire brigade (trying not to laugh) cut the roof off of a nearly new
undamaged patrol car!

Anyone want a police cabriolet?
