Can non-priority vehicles drive while on an emergency run?
Right of way
Explanation
**Non-priority vehicles** can circulate in emergency service under **especially serious circumstances**. This refers to situations where it is necessary to act quickly, such as taking a very ill person to the hospital or a woman about to give birth. In these cases, even if the vehicle is not specifically equipped for emergency services, the driver can request preference from other vehicles.
To indicate the urgency, the driver can use the **horn intermittently**, turn on the **emergency lights**, or wave a **handkerchief out the window**. However, it is important that the driver respects traffic regulations, especially at intersections, to ensure the safety of everyone on the road.
Therefore, in serious emergency situations, non-priority vehicles can request preferential passage, as long as the necessary precautions are taken to not endanger other road users.
