In a legitimate health emergency, it is. I didn't say it was LEGAL, but if a family member of mine were bleeding profusely, and I were driving them to a hospital at two in the morning on a deserted road, it would be appropriate not to sit for two minutes at a red light. In fact, it would be "cerebrally impaired" to do so.
And please don't resort to the "Why didn't you call an ambulance" fallacy. (For the same reason the Denny's shooter wasn't in a mental facility.)
