It depends. If they are just driving around with no light or sirens on, I don't do much of anything.
However, if they have thier sirens blaring and lights flashing, and they are coming up behind me, or are coming towards me on a two lane (one each way) road, then I pull off to the side. If they are on a divided highway, on the otherside, then I keep on cruising.
Rant time: I can't stand the people who pull over/slow down when they see an emergency vehicle going the other direction, and the road is divided by a barrier of some kind. What do they think the firetruck is going to do, bust through the concrete median. :cuss:
Also, just because there is a wreck on the otherside of the road, that does not mean everybody on our side needs to slow down in the hopes of seeing something gory, just so you can go home and tell everybody how bad it was. Quite rubber necking. I hate waiting in traffic for an hour and a half, then when I get up to the "accident", it is on the other side of the road.
Rant off: Have a nice day.

If they'd got lights and/or siren on I pull over & let them pass then try to follow them so I have a clear lane :lol:
I hate when people don't pull over for them, and they have to stop and blare the horn until they move. If I was in the ambulance and some focker like that made me late to the ER...I'd come back and haunt them when I die.
Usually pull over and stop.
I slow to a crawl depending on the situation.

:lol: I have done that a few times but not when I'm in my own state.
I hate when I am going to a fire call and a person LOOKS at the engine and then proceeds to keep going. :mj: :fm:
Although it is fun for us because then we basically park next to their window (even more fun when it is open) and just lay on the air horns and the siren... Ahhh, good times.
Thanks for the responses guys. :beer:
here in KC i've seen ambulances and fire trucks on the highway being passed by traffic. wtf?
pull over and stop - i feel it's disrespectful/dangerous to do anything but..
pull over and stop - or slow down, alot....

well said.
In Canuckistan you are legally obligated to pull over for emergency vehicles, failure to do so leads to fines and/or jail time. Thusly I am happy to oblige.
Pssst, west coast is the best coast torontonian... ;-)
just because you guys didn't win the Superbowl junior cup doesn't require bitterness now Mr. LTD and remember Tod Bertuzi lives in Ontario. 
oh great, now we get canadain jokes! oke:
