Critical Mass can clear a street for emergency vehicles.

Here is an excerpt from a car-free network email.
"...In the USA, automobile congestion is a major factor in emergency
response delays, causing additional loss of life. (In contrast there's
no delay when there's a critical mass ride when a fire truck needs to
get through, because bicyclists clear the street almost instantly,
whereas motor vehicle gridlock has no option..."
Of course, the same applies to ambulances.
