When travelling on a one-way street, you see and hear an ambulance with its siren on coming towards you from the rear; what does the law require you to do?

Pull to the nearest curb and stop
Pull to the left only and stop
Pull to the right only and stop
Slow down and let the ambulance pass you on your right

The correct answer is: Pull to the nearest curb and stop

When travelling on a one-way street and an ambulance with its siren on is approaching you from the rear, the law requires you to pull over and stop at the nearest curb. This is because emergency vehicles have the right of way and need to pass through quickly and safely. Pulling over to the left or right may obstruct the ambulance's path, so it is important to stop at the nearest curb. Option A is the only correct option, as both options B and C only mention pulling to one side and do not specify the nearest curb. Option D suggests only slowing down, but this is not enough as the ambulance may still be hindered by your vehicle.
