How should a driver respond to emergency vehicles with lights and sirens activated?

When emergency vehicles are approaching with lights and sirens activated, the appropriate response is to pull over to the side of the road. This action allows emergency responders to pass safely and quickly, ensuring they can reach their destination without unnecessary delay. Pulling over not only helps to clear the lane for the emergency vehicle but also minimizes the risk of accidents that could occur if drivers remain in their lanes or attempt to navigate around the emergency vehicle. This response is crucial for maintaining the safety of all road users during such high-priority situations.

The other choices would not contribute to the safe and efficient movement of emergency vehicles and could potentially create hazardous situations for both the driver and the emergency responders.
