U know, legally speaking any emergency vehicle is not allowed to break the road rules. So this means running red lights etc any road rule for that matter.
Regardless of flashing lights or not. I'd be chasing it up. Go and inspect the local cop cares. One of thems bound to have a little of ur cars paint on it.

I agree with all that has been said so far. They would know which patrol car it was, don't be blown off by their bullshit. This is what they hope will happen, that Joe Public will just say 'ok' and wander off. Push it to the top if you need to. Drag the media in if need be. Don't let them rule the road, they have no right to hit your car and pretend it didn't happen.

Dont think your quite right there.... Im pretty sure any emergency vechile, cops, fireys or ambos, have right of way when thier lights are on and they have a siren going.

But yeah that sucks s0sage, try and get something done, but dont take them to the cleaners. They keep us safe after all.

Put in a report. I did this one time when an unmarked car cut me off around a corner with no lights on. I followed him and stopped where he had pulled up, went up to him and asked why he cut me off. He said he could do as he liked because he was on hoon patrol. So I went to the police station and put a report in. They said they were coming all the way from Brisbane just to book people and that they didnt really like them there either. Before I put the complaint in they were there all the time and after that I didnt see them for ages.

Whilst your at the cop shop ( ill assume they would be local )
ask to see any marked ss patrol cars they have, it would be sure to
have your paint on it or some damage mabey.....

if it is anything like the NT, it would have been fixed by now.

dunno if this helps at all.. but if ambos cops etc run reds, speed etc, they have 2 file an objection as 2 why they were doing what they were doing.. they get speeding fines etc just like the rest of us!
so if one of thems been in an accident, im guessing its bound 2 have been written up and filed somewhere...
