You're at the stop line at traffic lights on red. Now there's an emergency vehicle coming up behind you with blue lights and sirens. What do you do? Watch our #BlueLightAware video

Our new driver training units have finally arrived and are being introduced to our CERAD course. Look out for a new vehicle at a training centre or station near you. It’s a mobile classroom on wheels ! More photos to follow.

Happy #Retirement to Philip McIntee! He retired earlier this month after 50 years in health, including 27 years in Patient Transport Services. He will be greatly missed by his #Kilwinning colleagues and we wish him all the best in his well-deserved retirement!

The Tri services collaboration continues. On Wednesday we had the pleasure of welcoming Police Scotland and SFRS to our North CEC in Elgin. Some thought provoking discussions followed by a demonstration drive by one of our new trainee driving instructors. Great work taking place
