What a shocking video.
On the preamble, I suppose the articulate use of English, and his command of vocabulary, should have been a clue of what was in store for us.
What he has filmed is himself being shamed, as someone no knowing the law, or having any idea what an armed response might be up to. Then, he videos himself doing it.
Sadly, in his desperate attempt to discredit the Police and for his video to make money, by going viral, he overlooked doing his homework:-
Firstly, there is an exemption for seatbelt wearing in Police vehicles, as is true with other emergency vehicles. Exemptions also apply to everyone else under certain situations.
Secondly, we are all allowed to use a mobile under an emergency. 112 and 999 situations, even when driving. As the Police Officer politely pointed out, he didn’t know what the call was about.
I think most people with half a brain might linked the fact that armed response people could well be dealing with an err... armed response.
They were stationary anyway!
I think the Police officers acted professionally with dealing with this situation. Despite the fact they had a moron stood in the carriageway, with heavy traffic, they got him to a position of safety on the nearside of the vehicle, before departure.
Sadly, he was not done for obstruction because they had more important things to deal with.
