Pulling Over for Sirens and Lights

When an emergency vehicle approaches using its siren and flashing or revolving lights, or a police vehicle approaches lawfully using its siren alone, the operator of every other vehicle nearby drives at once to a position parallel to and as close as possible to the right hand edge or curb of the roadway, clear of any intersection, and stops there until it has passed.

• A state or local police officer or a firefighter may direct otherwise.
