100% true

although I HAVE managed to get an NYPD response (twice!) via 311 for traffic lights that are out at an intersection (I call 311, tell them there's a traffic light out at an intersection & it's going to cause an accident; they transfer me to 911 & they will actually send cops)

Traffic light is dept of transportation jurisdiction not police.

I am aware. They send cops to control the intersection / report the condition to DOT, and then (usually) wait for DOT to come fix it.
