Scots 999 paramedic who 'used car to pose as traffic cop with blue lights' charged by police

A paramedic has been accused of posing as a police officer and pulling over cars in his private motor. The Scottish Ambulance Service worker was spotted by police pulling over a vehicle on the A90 near Aberdeen.

It is believed the medic had turned on flashing blue lights fitted to his car. He was spotted using them to flag down a driver and give them a telling off, which is illegal.

Police confirmed a man, who we are not naming for legal reasons, had been charged over the incident and will be reported to the Procurator Fiscal.
