Received a email from the RAC and thought I might as well give it a read.  https://www.rac.co.uk/drive/advice/cameras/traffic-light-cameras/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=CHUB_MEMSIN_B_W12018-02-14_170032_8298541&cid=eml-email-CHUB_MEMSIN_B_W12018-02-14_170032_8298541-Drive_NL_MEMB_1st_Feature

I knew most of it BUT was absolutely shocked to see this ...  What defences can I use?  answer   However, it is unlikely you will be let off for allowing an emergency vehicle to pass.  What the heck .. I always thought you had to move out of the way even if it means going though a stop street or what ever to let them pass... Well I can tell you from now on they can wait especially in London when I'm at a traffic light or similar

There was a discussion thread about this a while back on a FB group I am in. I was surprised by this but yes you don't have any legal right to go through red lights even if it's to let an emergency vehicle through! I get annoyed as people go into a wild panic when they hear a siren, there's no need to lose your senses. Haha.
