Emergency Vehicles (PSA Radio Script)

(Time : 59)

Do you know what to do if suddenly you see the flashing lights and hear the siren of an emergency vehicle like a police car? an ambulance? or a fire truck? Obeying all the traffic laws and signals, drive your car to the right hand side of the road and stop. Once they've passed, make sure its safe and pull out safely onto the road. Never stop at an intersection because you may block traffic including the emergency vehicle. Always try to pull over to the right hand side of the road because t at is what the emergency vehicle expects you to do.
