This. This is, according to the cops I know, the majority of the problem. You don't need to stop the second you see the red and blues in the background. You can drive a bit, just as long as you make it clear that you are aware that the lights are for you and that you are making an honest effort to stop safely. That also doesn't mean to take the cop on a 20 minute trip to 'find' a 'safe place' to stop.
