Red lights and a siren is just a way to ASK for permission to go through a light. We still must pretty much come to a stop before proceeding and after driving for many years, I don’t even blow green lights at posted speed +10 as we are allowed.

I blow red lights every day I work. The red lights and siren just warn people, it does not stop them in any fashion. Most of the time, they just scatter like chickens. Some pull right, some left, some just stop, some ignore.

Red lights can be blown safely just like I do every shift, come to the light, no one in cross traffic proceed.

...

So I take it that speeding through a red light isn’t the correct way to do it.
