Cevap
The correct sequence of actions is: 1) Proceed completely through the intersection without stopping inside the junction, 2) Check mirrors and activate the right-turn signal to indicate intent to clear the travel lane, 3) Steer smoothly to the far-right edge of the roadway or right curb as soon as it is safe, and 4) Bring your vehicle to a complete stop parallel to the curb and remain parked until all emergency vehicles pass.
When an emergency vehicle approaches from behind while you are in an intersection, protocol requires clearing the intersection completely first before pulling over. Once clear, you signal and check mirrors, pull smoothly to the far-right edge of the road, and come to a complete stop until all emergency vehicles have passed.
