Question 7375

If a passenger car is transporting a sick person to the hospital urgently:

  1. It must obey the traffic rules, especially at intersections.
  2. It must only obey the rules that govern intersections.
  3. It is not required to obey the traffic rules.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: It must obey the traffic rules, especially at intersections.

Even if you are urgently transporting a sick person, your passenger car is not an emergency vehicle. You must obey all traffic rules, including the speed limit, and take special care at intersections, where you must not run a stop sign or a red light. In the image, the driver is holding a white handkerchief out the window but is braking for the traffic light.
