When an emergency vehicle approaches near an intersection, you must enter the intersection, then pull over to the left side of the road and slow down to a stop-ready speed (jokō).
[True / False · Hard]
Answer: False
Explanation
The Rules of the Road state that near an intersection, you must "avoid the intersection," pull over to the left side of the road, and "come to a complete stop." Entering the intersection or merely slowing down to a stop-ready speed is not permitted.
