The original comment suggested that in their country (assuming US?), emergency vehicles have "the right of way".

I asked if this was true, and gave my understanding of my own country's laws, where emergency vehicles do not have a right of way.

I'm not arguing that exercising caution implies a lack of a right of way. I'm stating that in the UK although you should give way to emergency vehicles, they do not have a right of way and so exercise caution.

I understand other countries might be different, we're all surprising and different. That's why I asked my original question.
