The lights and sirens are insufficient at that speed. A driver doesn’t have enough time to to locate the direction and source of the sound and to respond.

Police officers need to understand that other drivers may not respond immediately to their lights or siren, so they need to go slow enough to visually confirm each lane of potential oncoming traffic before crossing a red light. Clearly this police officer didn’t have time to do that at this speed.

There are several cameras at that intersection. From different angles than the one shown.
There have been accidents posted in the past on the Brusly Facebook page, so I’ll assume they’re for the City? Not 100% sure.
None of this magnitude, mostly “rear ends” which happen on that stretch 3-5 times a week.
