How far behind a fire department vehicle responding to an emergency must a driver remain?
- At least 500 feet
- At least 100 feet
- At least 300 feet
- At least 50 feet
Answer: At least 500 feet. Arizona requires at least 500 feet of distance behind a fire department vehicle responding to an emergency. The 300-foot figure applies to a police vehicle in the same circumstance, which makes it a plausible but wrong substitute. A 100-foot or 50-foot gap is even shorter and can obstruct the emergency response or expose the driver to sudden maneuvers. Identify the type of emergency vehicle before choosing the distance: fire department means 500 feet, police means 300 feet. Do not use the response vehicle's clear path as an invitation to follow closely.
