All priority vehicles in emergency service will carry blue lights in the future, Spain has announced. In addition to police vehicles, they will be carried by firefighting vehicles, health care and civil-life protection. A period of two years is allowed for the holders of the affected vehicles to change from yellow to blue. With this change, Spain complies with the existing regulations in most of the States of the European Union. Until the publication of this reform, the blue light device was restricted to the exclusive use of police vehicles and yellow for the other priority vehicles: fire extinguishing, civil protection-rescue and health care. This yellow auto light device is also carried by slow vehicles, which are the ones that constitute an obstacle in the road due to being stopped or parked or driving at a low speed while performing a service or work on the road. “This situation generated some confusion among the rest of the road users by not clearly identifying the vehicles for firefighting, health care and civil protection-salvage as priority vehicles in emergency service that also have priority in passing,” said a spokesman for Spain’s driving directorate. In this way, the blue rotaries are reserved for the light signal of all the priority vehicles in emergency services and the yellow car for the vehicles that constitute an obstacle in the road, which contributes to improving safe mobility.
