IF an emergency vehicle (be it FD, EMS, or LEO) is approaching you, either from the front or rear, with its lights and sirens on, you are to pull to the side of the road and stop. THIS IS THE LAW!!!!!
The law does not say continue driving as you already were. It does not say flip off the driver of said vehicle. It does not say to go ahead and make that left turn you were going to make. And it certainly does not say to pull into the path of the emergency vehicle.
And if someone much more intelligent than you, who understands the law, begins to pull over for the emergency vehicle, this IS NOT your cue to pass the other vehicle. They are pulling over for a frackin' reason and you should be also. There's a good possibility that over fifteen tons of bright red and white fire engine, traveling at a moderately high rate of speed, is quickly filling the rearview mirror you've failed to look at in over twenty years. I don't care how tough you think your Expedition or Hummer or Suburban is, it is no match for a fire engine. Don't make me hurt you....
