Answer:

Deontological ethical system

Explanation:

Deontology is the branch of ethics that deals with duties, especially those that govern professional activities. Professionals such as police officers, doctors, lawyers, teachers, engineers, psychologists, should be aware of the ethical standards demanded by their work in specific.

Therefore, Officer Jones has failed in his deontological ethical system by not complying with the rule of enforcing the law and infringing the driver who passed the red light.
