BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) — First responders throughout the Treasure Valley are uniting to launch a weeklong public awareness campaign titled “See the Lights, Pull to the Right,” beginning August 10.

The campaign was inspired by a local citizen who expressed concern after witnessing several drivers unsure of how to respond when emergency vehicles approached with lights and sirens. First responders saw this as an opportunity to educate the community.
