emergency vehicle". See §11—118 of this
article.
In subsection (c)(2) of this section, the term
"fire alarm" is added to conform to the like
reference in subsection (a)(3) of this
section.
The only other changes are in style.

GENERAL REVISOR'S NOTE:
Present Art. 66 1/2, §11-106.1 provides for the
application of this title to the drivers of certain
public vehicles. The Commission to Revise the Annotated
Code deleted this section as unnecessarily repetitive of
present Art. 66 1/2, §16-103, now §26-103 of this
article, which establishes the same rule of applicability
for several titles of the Maryland Vehicle Law, including
this Title 21.
