emergency

An emergency is an urgent, unexpected, and usually dangerous situation that poses an immediate risk to health, life, property, or environment and requires immediate action. Most emergencies require urgent intervention to prevent a worsening of the situation, although in some situations, mitigation may not be possible and agencies may only be able to offer palliative care for the aftermath.
While some emergencies are self-evident (such as a natural disaster that threatens many lives), many smaller incidents require that an observer (or affected party) decide whether it qualifies as an emergency.
The precise definition of an emergency, the agencies involved and the procedures used, vary by jurisdiction, and this is usually set by the government, whose agencies (emergency services) are responsible for emergency planning and management.

    New EV user and awaiting my MG HS PHEV.

    Morning, I have just joined the forum and have learned a few things already. I have never driven electric so please excuse any daft, appearingly obvious, questions I may ask. Two initially 1. Does the car come with an emergency spare as standard? Seem to be mixed opinions and no reference in...

    So I'm down to 10% and I'm at a fast charging station. I plugged in and presented my electroverse card.

    EmergencyHammer

    The Cyberster has been in my possession for a week now and I am very pleased with it. However, I have a question about the emergency hammers 🔨. These have not been given a fixed place but are loosely placed behind my back in the net. I do not consider this a safe place because you can never...

    Alternative use for tax disc holder

    I have ICE information form in mine, but it’s getting a bit faded and needs updating now. I’ve been in search of a replacement, and found these. Insurance company Aviva also have one, but it’s for your insurance policy details, rather than emergency contacts.

    Archived MG 5 16 inch genuine emergency spare wheel.

    For sale. A 16 inch emergency spare wheel, tyre and jack kit. This was bought from the MG dealer who sold me the MG 5 pre face lift long range car. The wheel was used for about 20 slow miles to get home after a puncture. The whole kit cost me £245 and I’m asking for £145 plus delivery.

    How to disable alarm after emergency key use?

    So yesterday I went for a dog walk in the snow and came back to find that my key wasn’t opening my 2020 ZS EV. I tried opening the car using the emergency key to get the dogs out of the traffic but it triggered the alarm and I couldn’t figure out how to turn it off. Is there a button somewhere...

    Makeshift Ambo!

    Went on an overnight trip to Lancashire to help parents in law empty their static. Got home fully loaded on Friday, but realised we needed some juice to get home from Warrington. So we went to BP in Birchwood. The forecourt was painted with very smooth paint and it had been raining. As I took...

    Mods, I know there are plenty of Charging Flap related Debacles, but I've started afresh as I haven't seen this information before. Please move, if this has been covered elsewhere. After last year's faffing and Charging Flap related shenanigans, I got my hair off last night when it wouldn't...

    Emergency key

    Has anyone tried to open the drivers door with the emergency key in the key fob, I'm laying my car up for 3month and want to disconnect the battery. To re-enter the car you use the emergency key but it seems awfully stiff

    V2L is pumping water from House

    Recently, for the first time, I made good use of the V2L function when I connected a pump to my MG ZS EV and pumped water from a flooded house in Opava, Czech Republic, where there were severe floods. There's no electricity anywhere in the area, so you can only use your own energy source. Some...
