Emergency vehicle etiquette
So I'm curious as to the collective CP etiquette when dealing with an emergency vehicle. I'm not interested in what the law says only what YOU do when you see an emergency vehicle as a driver on the public roadway.

I'm going to present several scenarios and you tell me what you think you would do.

*EDIT* assume all scenarios emergency vehicle is running emergent.


A. You are driving on a two lane road (one lane in each direction) separated by a double yellow line. On either side of the road are multiple turning points, such as business entrances and other public roadways. An emergency vehicle approaches from behind you, what do you do?


B. You are driving on a two lane road (one lane in each direction) separated by a double yellow line. On either side of the road are ditches and there are no entrances or roadways to turn onto. An emergency vehicle approaches from behind you, what do you do?


C. You are driving on a two lane road (one lane in each direction) separated by a double yellow line. On either side of the road are multiple turning points, such as business entrances and other public roadways. An emergency vehicle approaches from in front of you (traveling in the opposite direction), what do you do?


D. You are driving on a two lane road (one lane in each direction) separated by a double yellow line. On either side of the road are ditches and there are no entrances or roadways to turn onto. An emergency vehicle approaches from in front of you (traveling in the opposite direction), what do you do?




Would love to hear what you guys think is appropriate and feel free to explain why you do what you do.

They may need to pass a car in front of them.

I pull over as far to the right as I can if they are coming from either direction, if they are going my way, I then jump on their back bumper for a personal escort through traffic.

scenario A ) Since there are multiple turning points I pull off the road and try to find a place to piss because I need to drain the 12 pack I just drank

scenario B) Well, I guess I drive into the ditch ,since I have 4 wheel drive and am hammered I don't really care.

scenario c) Same as scenario A. Time to find a parking lot to piss in

scenario D)Same a B

I had some asshat honk at me this week for waiting at a green light while a ambulance was coming up behind us. Ambulance went by, I opened my sunroof, gave him the double tallboys and waited until the light turned yellow and then floored it. Made my day.

I always slow to a stop as I pull as far to the the right as I can. The only time I don't do that is if I am already stopped at a red light or a stop sign. If I have already entered an intersection then I pull through it, slow to a stop as far to the right as I can.

In situations where I think the person behind me has an obstructed view I turn on my emergency blinkers.

I live in a town with no hospital. The quickest way to the nearest hospital is a two lane highway. When an ambulance is making a speed run to the hospital everyone goes to the shoulder and stops. It's easy to go over 100 MPH safely much of the trip if everyone GTFO of your way.
