The end of the article when it talks about the fire trucks that the car failed to yield to; the article claimed it was because they were yellow instead of red. What about cop cars that are white, black, blue? How about ambulances? This seems super shady behavior to me.

There's also unmarked emergency vehicles.

Yes, This. An unmarked huge truck with a massive ladder a big control panel full of dials and stuff, and big-ass hoses everywhere, driven or surrounded by big dudes in red or yellow fireproof jackets, with those cool helmets with the visor backwards, could be confused with a UPS van.
