lidistick 70 Report post Posted March 27, 2009 A green flashing light? I've got a new job in a new department and occasionally get called back for Emergencies. Where can I get a uber cool flashing green light? No one in my department knows nor has had one fitted. I know that the LTSA specifically allow docs to have flashing lights when on 'urgent' business. Something like this here but minus the stripes http://www.ukemergency.co.uk/others/doctors1.htm Then I can claim the entire car as a business expense.

Try a safety shop, as they would have suppliers for the orange and purple ones that might do green. My local emergency doc has red... http://www.ems.org.nz/ edit: http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/St-Patricks-Day-7-I...emZ310123903638 hehe, you could say you needed an emergency pint of Guinness!

elmarco 56 Report post Posted March 27, 2009 (edited) Call Hella (09 577-0000). One of these babies behind the grill should do you nicely. Next to zero power consumption, damn near bulletproof and self flashing (multiple flash modes). As 3pedals says though, you don't get any further street cred for having one. And may even have some explaining to do at WoF or checkpoint time... Let me through, I'm a doctor! edit: And they are Kiwi designed and made....

EDIT From the road code itself: Doctors, nurses or midwives on urgent business may use a roof-mounted green flashing light. If you see these, you must pull over and allow the vehicle to pass.
