Question: 1 / 50

What should you do when you see an emergency vehicle with its lights and siren activated?

Pull over to the right and stop, allowing it to pass.

There are a few reasons why the other options are incorrect. Option B is unsafe and could lead to a collision with the emergency vehicle or other cars on the road. Option C is dangerous and goes against traffic laws, as emergency vehicles need to have clear passage to reach their destination quickly. Option D is also incorrect, as following an emergency vehicle too closely may impede its progress. It is important to remember that emergency vehicles have the right of way and it is necessary to pull over and stop to allow them to pass safely. This allows emergency responders to reach their destination as quickly as possible and potentially save lives.

Increase your speed to get out of its way.

Continue driving at your current speed and ignore it.
