This section
from the PA Driver's Manual, Pub. 95 (4-05),Chapter III, page
46, states the actions that a none emergency driver is required
to take in the following situations.
Emergency Vehicles/Situations
Certain vehicles have sirens and flashing red
lights or a combination of flashing red and blue lights. The
lights assist emergency vehicles to move quickly through traffic
and to answer emergency calls. Emergency vehicles include fire
department equipment, police cars, ambulances, blood delivery
vehicles and specially equipped vehicles from river rescue
organizations, but other types do exist. Watch out for them.
When you hear a siren or see a vehicle
approaching with flashing red (or a combination of red and blue)
lights, pull
over to the curb or edge of the road and stop.
Drive parallel and as near to the curb as possible. On one-way
streets, drive toward the road edge nearest you. Always stay
clear of intersections.
After the emergency vehicle passes, you may
start driving again. You must stay at least
500 feet
away from the emergency vehicle.
If an emergency vehicle is leaving or
returning to its garage and the emergency lights are still
flashing, you must stop until the emergency vehicle is safely
out of your path.
During an emergency situation, all drivers
must obey the
direction of any uniformed police officer, sheriff, constable or
any properly attired person, including fire police.
