Government proposals to charge drivers every time the fire service attends road traffic accidents could bump up social costs of car insurance premiums to around £70, said the AA. Fire and Rescue Services are critical at around 30,000 road traffic accidents where there is no fire and rescue. But a consultation paper published by the Deputy Prime Minister's office suggested that the rescue services should be entitled to charge for such services, provided they do not make a profit.
