Correct answer

It is warning of the exceptional article 70 situation: a non-priority vehicle forced by particularly serious circumstances, with no alternative means available, to perform a service normally reserved for priority vehicles. It uses intermittent horn warnings together with hazard lights if fitted, or the prescribed warning procedure. The driver must obey traffic rules, especially at junctions, and officers may require justification. This does not turn it into a priority vehicle enjoying all associated exemptions.
