Life is full of temptations and being an authority figure gives people a lot of freedom to bend the rules. I've seen cops just switch on their sirens just to run a red light and then turn them off.
So you you abuse your rights as a cop? Would you take drugs from addicts and use them yourself? Speed through red lights?
Or would you be a Good cop that always obeyed the rules?
I personally am a sucker for temptation so it' probably a really good thing that I am not a cop.

I have seen cops do that siren to get through a red light thing and I think it's dirty. When I see a cop speeding around without a siren on, clearly just speeding because nobody's going to give him a ticket, I have been tempted to follow right behind them, keeping the same pace, and then if stopped for speeding say something like "my speedometer's been acting up, so I was just following you because I figured you would be going the speed limit..." I've never done it but I've been tempted.
If I was a cop, I would probably not worry too much about the speed limit, but I would not be as blatant as some of the jerks I see out there. But basically I think I would be a good cop. IF I was a cop. Which, honestly, I have no intention of becoming.
