Sharing the RoadStandalone practice
You are in the middle of an intersection, driving through on a green light. An ambulance with its siren on and red lights flashing comes up behind you. What should you do?
Blue A is already inside the intersection and crossing on green. Ambulance B approaches from behind with red emergency lights; the card states that its siren sounds.
Correct answer: Drive through the intersection, then pull to the right edge and stop until it passes.
Why
Emergency vehicles often go through intersections, so a car that stops inside one can block their path. If you cannot pull to the right, slow down and leave a clear path. After the ambulance passes, do not follow it closer than 500 feet while its red lights flash.
