Would it pull over if it sees the blinking lights / siren behind it?
Sure. Why wouldn't it? It can detect cars with radar, and see flashing lights with cameras.
I think the hard question is whether it should try to get out of the way, or pull into an intersection to clear a lane (ambulance, fire truck, police), or if it should actually pull the whole way over off of the road and stop (police).
Could you spoof it with a bunch of blinking xmas lights on the side of the road?
No. Putting blinking lights on a car might spoof it, but that will probably get you arrested for impersonating a police vehicle.

FALSE
While Google does collect and make use of the personal information of end users, the one thing that they have NEVER done is sell that information to any third parties.
You can read Google's Privacy Policy for more information about how they use personal information. In particular, read the "Information We Share" section.
