i do NOT see it stated anywhere that they *CAN* have their lights off whilst driving at a faster speed

and in my personal opinion, B is complete crock. that is too open to debate...damn the buddy system

right so where do you see it stated where they CAN'T have their lights off?

Not sure about other states, but California emergency vehicles (including police) are not allowed to go more than 15 over the speed limit -- and that's only when they've been called to a scene and must speed to get there.
kinda implies that they can't go over 15mph without having the lights on.

BAH! I don't wanna go through a law book. bite me 😛
