Correct answer

Make way using measures appropriate to the circumstances.

Take suitable measures for the circumstances to let the emergency police vehicle pass, normally moving right or stopping if necessary. Do not assume that stopping is always required or obstruct its path. Where Article 32 applies, cooperate in forming the emergency corridor. Obey any specific officer instructions. Emergency-vehicle priority and exemptions do not authorise other drivers to create danger.
