When an emergency vehicle approaches at or near an intersection, you must move into the intersection, pull to the right and stop.

Explanation

False. You keep clear of the intersection, pull to the left and stop, because stopping inside it would block the emergency vehicle's path. You pull to the right only on a one-way street where going left would get in its way.
