There is a police car parked in the middle of the street with its red lights flashing, but there is no officer present. Can I drive around the police car?
No. While it may seem nothing is going on or wrong, this is an indication that an actual emergency or something dangerous is ahead. For your safety, never drive around a police car parked with its red lights flashing without permission from a law enforcement officer. Your safety depends on this.
