@NYPD5Pct Thank you to you and your team for the hospitality. We all had a good shift and learnt so much. #JacksPack #MetPolice

Thank you to the London Metropolitan Police for joining us on a ride-along in Chinatown! 🐲

In Memory of Lillie Jane Clack. Debbie Clack’s tells us about the night she received the message that her daughter had been involved in a collision caused by a drink driver. DON’T DRINK/DRUG DRIVE #OpLimit2 #VisionZero @metpoliceuk @ProjectEdward @RoadPeace

“It’s Ruined My Life”. The words of Debbie Clack who lost her daughter, Christmas 2021, due to a drink driver. DON’T DRINK/DRUG DRIVE #OpLimit2 #VisionZero @metpoliceuk @ProjectEdward @RoadPeace

Being a #FLO often means that dreaded knock at the door & this time of year it’s always harder. Adults thinking it’s relatives, children thinking it’s Santa 🎅🏻 You knock knowing that what you’re going to tell them will change their lives forever 🚔 #DontDrinkAndDrive

Impactful account from the mother of Lillie Clack. Debbie Clack tells us about the night she received the message that her daughter had been involved in a collision caused by a drink driver. DON’T DRINK/DRUG DRIVE #OpLimit2 #VisionZero @metpoliceuk @ProjectEdward @RoadPeace

@SgtMattB @TomGaymor @PhilVickersLP @FatigueResearch @OscarKiloUK @PFEW_HQ @PoliceChiefs @LincsPolFed Don’t confuse drivers hours with CPC. They are two different things. Application of drivers hours for emergency services would be interesting. Our staff should have the ability to self recognise fatigue & our leaders should support that.

@TomGaymor @PhilVickersLP @FatigueResearch @OscarKiloUK @PFEW_HQ @PoliceChiefs @LincsPolFed It baffles me how they don’t have us fall under “drivers hours” much like CPC with Lorrie’s etc. We drive the same amount of time, sometimes more. So dangerous.

✳️ Shift Work in Policing and Driving ✳️ Every shift worker should read this article by @FatigueResearch ✳️ 12hr+ Shifts mean more RDs & less commuting costs - But there are significant risks @OscarKiloUK @PFEW_HQ @PoliceChiefs @LincsPolFed college.police.uk/article/shift-…

Anyone we gave a lift to last night, want to leave a review? DON’T DRINK/DRUG DRIVE #OpLimit2 #VisionZero @metpoliceuk @ProjectEdward @RoadPeace

Did we give you a lift last night? #TheMet #OpLimit2 #VisionZero @metpoliceuk @ProjectEdward @RoadPeace

@iam_lozzx Booked on I hope?

Driver thought this was ok and fully secure. Well it isn't, cant just rely on the chains in this situation. vehicle prohibited PG9 until another truck arrived, and driver fined. #CVU #Saferroads. At least he had dust sheets on 🤷‍♂️

@Sgt_117T Good grief. They are horrific. If was in that picture I’d have wanted my face pixelated 😂

@Areacarcaptain You are probably right on both accounts, but I love response policing and dipping in and out now and again is a good refresher. I had good operators on both days who were keen and a credit to the job.

@AlexBurlison @Ldn_Ambulance Part of me thinks you're mad. But part of me thinks that occasional visits back to Response by Specialist would do both the response teams and the specialist some good. #ShareTheKnowledge #ShareTheLoad

Last 2 nights have seen me working back on team again doing response policing. Last night we dealt with a person experiencing mental ill health with @Ldn_Ambulance. With good team work we were able to get the person to a hospital to be seen by professionals #TeamGreenAndBlue

@jamesclarke2021 @Ldn_Ambulance Helping out.

@Ritchhh It did and I enjoyed it. Still found time to be proactive and do some traffic stops though. Seized two and PG9’d one.

@AlexBurlison Bet that brought memories back

As someone who has a specialist posting in traffic you can be quite removed from the realities of everyday response policing. 3 days this week I’ve worked on ‘team’ on a BCU. So much demand, but the teams worked hard from start to finish. I’ve a new found respect for them.

@Ritchhh I believe there are some challenges in resourcing at times, but yes they were that short they let me loose with an operator.

@AlexBurlison They are that short?

@JJSharpers It’s a great system. I really enjoy using it.

@Ritchhh Thank you. Someone caught me working 😂

@AlexBurlison Just sent you a Photo, didn't realise it was you at the time
