Do you
know what to do if suddenly you see the flashing lights and
hear the siren of an emergency vehicle like a police car?
an ambulance? or a fire truck? Obeying all the traffic laws
and signals, drive your car to the right hand side of the
road and stop. Once they've passed, make sure its safe and
pull out safely onto the road. Never stop at an intersection
because you may block traffic including the emergency vehicle.
Always try to pull over to the right hand side of the road
because t at is what the emergency vehicle expects you to
do.
For
more information on emergency vehicles, pick up a free California
Driver handbook written in both Spanish and English at your
local California Department of motor vehicles. This
message is brought to you by the Agricultural Health and Safety
Center, Department of Applied Behavioral Sciences, University
