London Fire Brigade have amber lights to give right of way. The demonstration of the powerful new amber coloured lights with which every appliance used by London fireman motor pumps and escapes, extension ladders and emergency tenders, is to be fitted was held at the new London Fire Brigade headquarters on the Albert Embankment. The light which can be detected at a distance by police for an motorist, are being adopted to solve the problem of brigades coming across traffic signals on their way to fires. It is hoped that the combination will enable engines and escapes to rush past the road signals in emergency with comparative safety.
