in answer to a fire alarm.

(b) The driver of any vehicle other than one on official

business shall not follow any emergency vehicle or shall not

exists which would interfere with the free movement of authorized

emergency vehicles or any other traffic using the highway at that

location. For the purpose of this subsection the definition of

emergency shall include traffic accidents, airplane accidents,

disasters, explosions, civil disturbances and (without limitation by
