"For example giving way to a fire engine/ambulance and safely pulling over a stop line at a traffic light controlled junction or into a bus lane "
to be honest though often cited the need to do this is vanishly rare. I can't recall ever needing to doing it in 50 years of driving. I also suspect that most such genuine cases are overturned on appeal if reasonable evidence and timings are produced.
On the other hand the number of drivers driving through red lights and using bus lanes where there are no cameras is very high. Its all a question of decding where lies the greater good. Its a sad thing but a large minority of people simply ignore rules like stopping at traffic lights or driving in bus lanes if if they are not adequately policed
