If you approach an emergency vehicle, tow truck, or roadside assistance vehicle that is stopped with its lights flashing, you must change lanes to allow the vehicle extra space. If there is only one lane moving in your direction, or if changing lanes would be unsafe, you must slow down to a speed below the posted speed limit and give the stationary vehicle as much room as possible. Always slow down and be prepared to stop when you approach an emergency scene.
- Slow down. If possible, change lanes so you will not drive next to the stopped emergency vehicle.
- Drive to the right side of the road and stop.
- Stay in your lane and continue to drive at the same speed.
- Accelerate to quickly pass the stopped vehicle.
