Slowing down on a highway is required by law in many areas, in the presence of emergency vehicles.

  Yes, by 10-20mph. Not down to <40mph. I thought it was a smart idea when I first saw signs about it on a road trip many years ago, and incorporated it into my own driving before the law had been widely adopted. I aim to do most of my driving at less busy times, so I often end up moving over a lane even if I'm not in the rightmost lane. And actually it's a good idea to do the same for all stopped vehicles, regardless of lights - amateurs are even more likely to make mistakes.

    I see flashy lights on the highway and I can’t tell for sure what’s going on I for sure slow down <40 mph because for all you know they could be up to anything that requires you to come to a complete stop. Especially if the blinding lights are especially blinding.
