Video Lesson: Should I Pass This Responding Fire Truck?

An SUV and a Tulsa (OK) fire truck responding to an emergency had a close call Saturday.

As the apparatus approached an intersection and planned a U-turn, the SUV driver thought it was safe to pass on the left, until it became clear the fire truck was turning. Fortunately, no one was injured.

The Tulsa Fire Department used the video as a public service announcement on social media about the dangers of passing responding fire apparatus.
