BDifficulty 2/5

Does an ambulance travelling with its light signals switched off have right of way?

Correct answer

No.

It has no special priority merely because it is an ambulance. Special signals announce urgent service; the warning light may be used without the siren when omitting the sound poses no danger. That exception permits omission of the sound, not the warning light.
