## Question
When an emergency vehicle approaches on a one-way road, you must always pull over to the left side, even if pulling over to the left would obstruct the emergency vehicle.

## Correct answer
False

## Explanation
The Rules of the Road state that on a one-way road, if pulling over to the left would obstruct the emergency vehicle, you must pull over to the right side instead. The trick in this question is that on a one-way road, you are not always required to pull over to the left.
