No point going any further with this guy but at the end of the day my standby is because in the first instance WY Police started the ball rolling closely followed by PCT. He says all this rubbish on the news about 4x4 drivers helping out is silly because we don't have the same training as profesionals and we are more likely to cause a problem than resolve them. I replied back and informed him that's possibly why groups like 4x4 response and RAYNET are in the emergency plans.
It's such a shame that people like us who are prepared to get off our back sides to assist others are not given more recognition.

Sure he's not just a traffic warden? Sounds like a right knob.
