From the Manitoba Driver’s Handbook:
When an emergency vehicle (ambulance, fire or police), sounding an alarm and flashing lights, is approaching from any direction you must yield right-of-way by
- immediately moving clear of an intersection if you are stopped for a red light or stop sign. If blocking the path of an emergency vehicle, you must proceed through a red light or stop sign with caution, to clear the way
- driving as closely as possible to the right curb or edge of roadway; and
- remaining stopped at the edge of the road until the emergency
But one man probably wishes he hadn’t. Turning off a street to make way for the fire truck behind him, he rounded the corner only to be creamed by an ambulance that was rushing to the same call.
Sigh. Life.
