Q1 - Does the Met incorporate all those regulations? If not which regulations does the Met Police not impose on its drivers?

With regards to the College of Policing – ‘Police Driving’ section, the MPS incorporates this guidance into its Standard Operating Procedures.

There are however, slight deviations in respect of the Pursuits heading. In relation to the heading ‘On-Call vehicle use’, this awaits an update.
