You are driving on a 30 mph road when you see blue flashing lights in your mirror and hear a siren from an ambulance approaching quickly behind you. There are pedestrians crossing ahead and a cyclist on your left. According to the Highway Code and the responsibility of those who can cause the greatest harm, what should you do?

Explanation

The Highway Code (Rule 204 and the emergency vehicle rules) states that those who can cause the greatest harm, such as drivers of motor vehicles, have the greatest responsibility to reduce danger to vulnerable road users like pedestrians and cyclists. When an emergency vehicle approaches, you should stay calm, slow down, and move aside only when it is safe and legal to do so, without endangering others or mounting the pavement. You must not speed up, brake harshly, or create new risks while letting the emergency vehicle pass.
