What
to do if an Emergency Vehicle is behind you.
When you notice an Emergency Vehicle approaching you from
behind with lights and sirens, slow down and pull to the side
of the road after making sure all traffic is clear. If you are
at a red light, use extreme caution before proceeding as the
traffic that has the green light has the right of way, try to
turn right only do not pull through the intersection.
