The West Perth Firefighters Association is reminding the public they need to pull over for emergency vehicles who are enroute to an emergency.

The association says this week they’ve responded to multiple calls and noticed a number of drivers who have ignored the lights and sirens, pointing to one call where they had followed a motorist for 5kms before traffic in either direction moved over.

Its also illegal to not pull over and stop for an approaching emergency vehicle which can result in a fine of up to $2000 and three demerit points.
