Must priority vehicles on emergency calls be given the right of way?
Right of way
Explanation
**Priority vehicles** are those that perform **emergency services**, such as police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and civil protection vehicles. When they are in an emergency, they use **sirens and special lights** to indicate their priority on the road. In these situations, **all other vehicles and pedestrians must give way to them**.
Additionally, the drivers of these vehicles can **exceed speed limits** and are not required to follow traffic signals, except for the instructions of traffic officers. However, they must ensure not to endanger others when crossing intersections or red lights.
Therefore, as a general rule, it is essential to facilitate the passage of these vehicles so they can perform their duties efficiently and safely.
