When a fire truck approaches behind with its flashing lights and siren on, you should immediately and safely pull over as close as possible to the right side of the road (curb or edge), stop your vehicle, and remain stopped until the fire truck has passed. Use your turn signal to indicate your intentions and ensure you do not block intersections or create danger for other road users. After the fire truck has passed, carefully merge back into traffic when it is safe to do so.

Key Actions to Take

• Pull over to the right side of the road as soon as it is safe.
• Stop and do not proceed until the emergency vehicle has passed.
• Use your turn signals to communicate your actions to others.
• Avoid stopping in the middle of an intersection; if you cannot clear it safely, move as far from the center as possible.
• Stay alert for additional emergency vehicles that might be following.
• Do not follow or try to outrun the emergency vehicle.

These actions ensure the fire truck can quickly and safely reach its destination without obstruction and help keep all road users safe.
