In places where traffic ops are well equipped, the siren is used to stop you (not waving a hand and throwing batons at your wind screen. during an element of surprise attack, , police usually walk the last few meters to the scene, or put off their engines and free wheel.

Actually, the police don't blare sirens when going after bad guys. They just pounce on these guys like a tiger. The only time a police siren goes on is when the big guy is around - to clear way for his motorcade!
