Emergency Vehicle Safety
Do
 
  •  Know your state laws when it comes to yielding to an emergency vehicle
  • Remain calm and don't panic
  • Move your vehicle to the right, if at all possible. Then, come to a complete stop, and wait. REMEMBER, "Move to the right for sirens and lights."
  • Stay put at an intersection stop sign or traffic light, if you cannot pull to the right.  Don't try to go through the intersection.
  • Pull over to the nearest side of the road if you are on a one-way road or divided highway -- but before you do, make sure the shoulder is safe.
  • Before you move on, make sure another emergency vehicle isn't coming along after the first one.
 
Don't
 
  • Stop in the middle of an intersection. Proceed through it, then pull over to the right.
  • Stop in the middle of a lane when there is room to pull to the right.
  • Pull to the left in the center yellow lane or left turn lane.
  • Race ahead to get through a green light or turn before emergency vehicle gets there.
  • Race after an emergency vehicle to get through a traffic light.
  • Make a left turn quickly into a driveway or side street.
  • Disregard the emergency vehicle and continue travel.
 
REMEMBER:
    NEVER PASS A MOVING EMERGENCY VEHICLE
