Question: 1 / 50

What is the required action when encountering emergency vehicles displaying flashing lights?

Accelerate to keep pace

Overtake if possible

Slow to 60 km/h

When encountering emergency vehicles displaying flashing lights, the correct and required action is to slow down to 60 km/h. This is because the flashing lights indicate an emergency situation and it is important to give the emergency vehicle enough space to pass by safely. Accelerating or even overtaking may result in a collision or blocking the pathway of the emergency vehicle. Stopping immediately may also be hazardous, as other vehicles may not be expecting sudden stops in traffic. Remember, safety should always come first in emergency situations. Therefore, C is the best option to ensure the safety of all drivers and emergency responders on the road.

Stop immediately
