When I was riding in the squads, we practically came to a full stop at all intersections.
The extra 5-10 seconds it takes won't make any difference.
Although I never was a driver, I heard that the hardest thing about training the drivers is to teach them NOT to drive fast like they see in the movies. And to never never just blow through an intersection.
