Some dictionaries state:
if a vehicle or driver pulls in somewhere, they stop there
My comment: a vehicle does not move to the side of the road!
We pulled in at the side of the road (the side of the road has to be specified!)
Other dictionaries state:
if a driver pulls in, they move to the side of the road and stop:
She pulled in to let the ambulance pass.
So, does the phrasal verb ‘pull in’ mean that a vehicle stops at the side of the road or just stops somewhere?
I hope I'm clear.
