Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Stop on the right side of the road, away from the intersection, and allow the emergency vehicle to pass.
When an emergency vehicle on duty appears behind you, you must clear the way completely: stop on the right side of the road, away from the intersection, and let it pass. Stopping in or near an intersection could block its path. Merely slowing down is not enough, because the emergency vehicle needs a free and safe passage, regardless of how many lanes the road has.
