Speeding.

A pregnant woman today was part of a dangerous and trilling emergency police escort. Sgt Harris, from Mornington P.D. originally pulled the lady over for running two red lights and sideswiping his squad car.

"To be honest I was incredibly shocked by the high-speed driving by Miss Jones. But once I was aware of the situation, I followed protocol and escorted her with the siren on, and the normal emergency traffic control schemes were activated."

"I would consider the particular episode proceeded very successfully, and I've been told everything went smoothly and all is well. In the process some minor damage to public and private property was apparent, lives were obviously placed at risk, but sometimes it has to be done, and I accept any repercussions that may be forthcoming."

A Victorian Police spokesperson has told us that the officer will not be chastised for the incident. "In situations such as this, in today's day and age, public endangerment is simply a necessity. If the same happened tomorrow, where a worker, such as Miss Jones, is running late for work, as Miss Jones was, and risks her job and livelyhood if she arrives after 9 AM, we will be inclined to do the same."

"Being dismissed for being a minute late is unfair, but with no fairness legislation, what other option do people have?"
