I don't know the law where you live, but in the UK this is illegal and the
emergency vehicle should have instead silenced sirens (the lights are left running) so as to avoid agitating you since you can't do anything to help while you have no safe route.
The reason is that you may make things worse by running a light, the people driving an emergency vehicle have in some cases trained specifically to run lights (although not all reasons they're driving under lights and sirens would justify doing so) but they aren't trained to make it safe for you to do the same so you should not.
