In most major cities in nordic countries there is smart highway that pseudo automatically clear the road for first responders. There is a dude in a controll center that is managing it, but he pretty much just need to press one button. The issue is, that system is only on the major roads, so you have to get to the system to benefit from it. But its generally expanded bit for bit

@Liggliluff At least where i live its still reserved to big cities only that have a internal network of motorways. Cities that just have one, generaly don´t have systems like that

@runeingebretsen8378 well in larger cities there is a command central that can prioritity route emegancy vehicles so they can block the traffic quite far ahead. I don't know exactly how it works but they have shown the system in stoclkholn on TV a few times.
