A. Upon the immediate approach of an authorized emergency vehicle, when the driver is giving audible sign by siren or bell, or flashing light, the driver of every other vehicle shall yield the right-of-way and shall immediately drive to a position parallel, and as close as possible, to the right-hand edge or curb of the highway clear of any intersection and shall stop and remain in such a position until the authorized emergency vehicle has passed, except when authorized by a police officer.

B. This section shall not operate to relive the driver of an authorized emergency vehicle from the duty to drive with due regard for the safety of all persons using the highway. (Ord. 8-1958 § 3.19, 1958)
