When emergency vehicles are on the shoulder, do you move over?

You should. It keeps people safe.
The driver in front of me didnt move over while two people were changing a tire on the shoulder. I got a look at the driver, who was wearing a reflective vest. So he of all people, should know the importance of moving over😐️

Yes, you should, can actually get a ticket for not doing that or reducing your speed significantly

Yes. Absolutely. The potential death is always on my mind. What if it was someone I know and love in-that emergency vehicle?

Seconds and minutes matter.

I always yield to emergency vehicles as soon as I see and/or hear them - I pull over out of their way, put on my flashers, and stop, and I move over into the other lane when they are on the shoulder. Also: When I pull over and stop for an emergency vehicle, I always wait for a minute or so, because sometimes another emergency vehicle is not far behind. When I lived in a smaller town, that was often the case - police car or fire truck first, then an ambulance, or some combination thereof.
I move over, when reasonable to do so, for any vehicle on the side of the road.
Yes, I always do if I have the opportunity. Otherwise, I at least slow down.

I try to. But sometimes it not possible to do so. So I at least slow down

It's the law where I'm from, if you are unable to do so you must slow down.

I move over unless I cannot, and in those instances I slow down until I am past them.

It's the law in my state to either move over or slow down.
Always move to the side....
