Yes if you are just following it to see where it is going. It is however not illegal to be going in the same direction as an emergency vehicle as long as you stay 500 feet back.

If the emergency vehicle is not using its emergency lights or sirens, and is not stopped at an emergency scene, you can treat it like a regular vehicle and follow it as would be legal for any other vehicle.

Tailgating an emergency vehicle is silly, as not only will you be speeding (only the emergency is allowed to speed while showing blue lights, and siren), but the emergency vehicle may stop suddenly, so you may crash and find yourself in trouble.

When you see an emergency vehicle responding to an emergency you are required to?

Make sure they can pass by your vehicle. Follow instruction if there is any. If you're in the way : GET OUT OF THE WAY. If you're waiting at a red light, carefully and slowly engage yourself so that the emergency vehicle can pass. Other road users will be warned by the siren. In most country, willingly blocking an emergency vehicle can lead to prosecutions in crime law.
