A retiree has spoken about how he was slapped with an £100 fine and landed three points on his license, after pulling over on a busy carriageway to let an ambulance overtake.
76-year-old Frank Wallington was on his way to a funeral when he allowed the emergency service vehicle to pass him by, but the pensioner had passed through traffic lights which had just turned red by 1.2 seconds in doing so.
He received correspondence one month later from Nottinghamshire Police - who informed him that his actions were considered a traffic offence and he would be punished accordingly.
