Law Enforcement Wrecker/Tow Truck Fire/rescue
Yes
When approaching a parked authorized emergency vehicle with its emergency lights activated or a wrecker with amber rotating or flashing lights, you should reduce your speed and, if possible, change lanes to create a safe buffer zone. This helps protect the personnel working on the roadside and ensures your safety as well. Always remain vigilant and prepared to stop if necessary, as situations can change quickly. Adhering to these precautions is often required by law in many jurisdictions.
If the gross vehicle weight rating of the wrecker is more than 26,000 lbs, yes.

Vehicle goes to impound yard via wrecker service. You have to pay to get it out the next day.
Depends on the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of the vehicle. 26,000 lbs. or less, it doesn't require a CDL. 26,001 lbs. or higher requires a Class B CDL. If you're running a Class C wrecker (Class C is a heavy wrecker... wrecker classification and driver license classification are two separate things), then you'd need a Class A CDL.
Grant the emergency vehicle the right of way.
