Question 4163

Do emergency vehicles have the right-of-way over all other road users?

  1. Yes, always.
  2. Only when they are responding to an emergency.
  3. No, never.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Only when they are responding to an emergency.

Only when they are responding to an emergency and signaling this with their special signals, normally the blue light and siren together, or just the light if turning off the siren poses no danger. When not responding to an emergency, an ambulance or police car is just another vehicle.
