[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can proceed legally through a red signal only as authorized by a LEO. OTOH, it’s fairly easy to determine whether there is a red light camera at an intersection and, if not, yield to the emergency vehicle by moving forward when safe to do so. Just exercise reasonable judgement recognizing that one or more lives might depend on your decision. Saying only DC is to blame is childish binary thinking. [/quote]

Laws are childish and binary. So is requiring payment of a ticket that was clearly the result of yielding to an emergency vehicle.

They can wait. [/quote]

Well actually no they can’t hence the flashing lights and siren. Grow up. People need emergency help and all you can think about is your wallet. [/quote]

You aren't required to run a red light and unsafely move into an intersection against the light. You are only required to move to the right. Maybe people are also concerned about not making stupid decisions and getting themselves injured or killed instead of just about their wallet.  The ambulance doesn't expect chaos around them as people make stupid decisions pulling every which way into traffic and against the light.[/quote]
