Driver’s reminded to yield for volunteer firefighters

You’re being reminded that every second counts when it comes to stopping for volunteer firefighters.

North Grenville Fire Department officials say they recognize that ongoing road construction can make stopping more challenging, but it’s essential to stay alert and make space for those responding to emergencies.

When an emergency vehicle has its lights and sirens activated, drivers should pull over safely to allow it to pass.

North Grenville officials say they are proud to be protected by 40 volunteer firefighters who use flashing green lights in their personal vehicles when responding to emergencies.

If you see a green light approaching, you’re asked to please yield the right of way when it’s safe.
