Question: In Alberta, emergency vehicles with sirens AND lights have:

Answer options:

• No special rights ✅ Right-of-way; pull over to the right
• Right of way at night only
• Right of way only on highways

Correct answer: Right-of-way; pull over to the right

Explanation: Under Alberta law, when an emergency vehicle approaches with its siren and flashing lights activated, drivers must yield the right-of-way, safely pull over to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway, and stop. This rule applies at all times on all roads, which makes options restricting this right to nighttime or highways incorrect, as is claiming they have no special rights. The Traffic Safety Act mandates this immediate cooperative yield to ensure emergency services can navigate traffic quickly and safely. On the Alberta Class 7 exam, expect questions testing your immediate duties when yielding to emergency vehicles to ensure you understand real-world safety protocols.
