There has been a lot of interest in "Bogus Paramedics" recently as they are currently not breaking any law by using this title.
Does the person in question call himself a "paramedic"? If so, perhaps the Ambulance Service Association or Council for the Professions Supplementary to Medicine might soon be interested. The CPSM will have power to act if closure of title is granted in the near (?) future.
In this case, only IHCD paramedics will be granted permission to use the title.
I would have thought that the local police would take an interest in his blue lights (you would have thought that, if he has a bona fide reason for having them, that they would be aware of his activities, regardless of whether he has ever been caught "ambulance chasing").
