Wrong Fuel Recovery Across Edinburgh and Lothian
Edinburgh, Scotland's capital, is served by the A1 and the city bypass, connecting the city centre to Leith's port area and the surrounding Lothian towns of Musselburgh, Dalkeith, and Livingston. As a major tourist destination, financial centre, and host to the Edinburgh Festival each summer, the city sees a huge variation in traffic and visitor numbers throughout the year, with hire cars and unfamiliar vehicles particularly common during the festival period and around the Old Town's historic, narrow streets.

Petrol in a Diesel Car. The most common call-out across Edinburgh, spanning commuter diesel vehicles across the city and commercial vans serving Leith's port and logistics operations.
Diesel in a Petrol Car. Frequently seen around Edinburgh's Old Town and festival period, when visiting and hire vehicles increase significantly.
