Some jurisdictions are operating stings, where a hidden patrol car lies in wait to write tickets for drivers not changing lanes or slowing down enough. The definition of "slowing down enough" is very subjective, and this is a real revenue enhancer.

Well, it shouldn't be - the answer is 20 mph below the posted limit.
Speed limit 65 - must be slower than 45.
Speed limit 20 or less - well, that one may be a problem.

The law require drivers, upon noticing either emergency vehicle with sirens or flashing lights, to move away from the vehicle by one lane, or if that is not possible, slow down by 20 mph (32kmh) below the posted speed limit.
