Do not run the red light, it is dangerous for us but suicide for you, just move out of the way as best you can and we will find a way through. We have flashing lights and hi vis reflective striping all over the car and we still get hit (rarely, thankfully) by inattentive drivers, what chance do you have? If you make it through, it is a pure act of god.

A couple of seconds is not worth possible carnage at an intersection running the red may cause.

We will not be happy if the child with an airway obstruction now has to wait 10 minutes for an ambulance instead of 2 minutes, because we now have to peel you out of a car as you have run a red light. Just believe me, I know this stuff and it is not worth the risk .
