I’m sure it’ll come out later that he was speeding.
Sometimes, cops that are frequently on call are allowed to install lights or sirens on personal cars so they can get into their station quickly.
Bombsquad calls are less frequent but generally urgent.
In any case, I would suggest he was driving like he had lights and sirens, despite not having them. Which makes it incredibly unsafe to do, and places blame squarely on the cop. (Though the article made sure to mention she pulled into his way.)
I mean, like it or not, that’s the way the law reads and is applied. We run into it with motorcycles all the time. Barring extreme cases, the car that pulls in front of the speeding vehicle is ‘at fault.’
