You can't really tell if the red light is for people turning, the traffic lights are hanging OVER crosswalk, and there isn't a separate red light for the turn lane.

@emantabrizi Even if you are you still have to make a complete stop before moving on.

Are you not allowed to turn right on red at this intersection?

0:12 - Cop runs a red light without his emergency lights activated and almost collides with an oncoming car at a speed greater than the red car he's perusing.

Ironically today my wife called on her way home to tell me she saw a motorcycle cop, driving on the sidewalk, going in the opposite direction of traffic without his lights on. Welcome to Mountain View, the city of psycho-cops.

The police too nice, just beat the driver, how hard is that?

@MegaWhitepower88 Correct. Some states, its ok as long as you come to a complete stop behind the limit line, then proceed if its safe to go. There is a big difference.
