Subchapter B. Right-Of-Way.
§ 3325. Duty of driver on approach of emergency vehicle.

(a) General rule.--Upon the immediate approach of an emergency vehicle making use of an audible signal and visual signals meeting the requirements and standards set forth in regulations adopted by the department, the driver of every other vehicle shall yield the right-of-way and shall immediately drive to a position parallel to, and as close as possible to, the right-hand edge or curb of the roadway clear of any intersection and shall stop and remain in that position until the emergency vehicle has passed, except when otherwise directed by a police officer or an appropriately attired person authorized to direct, control or regulate traffic. On one-way roadways a driver may comply by driving to the edge or curb which is nearest to the lane in which he is traveling.

(b) Duty of operator of streetcar.--Upon the approach of an emergency vehicle, the operator of every streetcar shall immediately stop the streetcar clear of any intersection and remain in that position until the emergency vehicle has passed, except when otherwise directed by a police officer, or an appropriately attired person authorized to direct, control or regulate traffic.

(c) Defense.--It is a defense to prosecution under this section if the defendant can show by a preponderance of the evidence that the failure to stop immediately for a police officer was based on a good faith concern for personal safety. In determining whether the defendant has met this burden, the court may consider the following factors:

1. The time and location of the event.
2. The type of vehicle used by the police officer.
3. The defendant's conduct while being followed by the police officer.
4. Whether the defendant stopped at the first available reasonably lighted or populated area.
5. Any other factor considered relevant by the court.

Blue lighters also must stop at all stop signs and traffic lights and may not speed.(Which doesn't happen)

it has been my experience and has been discussed with me by state troopers and other law enforcement that I know, that it is better for a driver to slow down and do their best to "get out of our way" than it is to stop in the roadway. Stopping in the road way not only puts the driver at risk but also the emergency personnel trying to overtake that vehicle/s.

What that trooper did was an embarrassment to not only law enforcement but also all emergency personnel. He needs a good ass chewing himself for behaving like an ego crazed lunatic.

Also being a truck driver, I have seen assholes like that trooper many times. They have no idea what it is like for a big truck to get out of their way, and they do not have the right to act like that trooper did plain and simple,

so Rev. on this subject, you are a complete jackass.
