I know cops are assholes. I hang out with way to many of them all the time. My girlfriends mom is a LT in philly and now works at the police academy. I'm always at dinners and stuff with them and have met most of the recruits of the last 4 classes that went through. So I'm well versed in the police mentality, which is a huge problem. 1/2 of them don't even know the laws. Just some inside info, the instructors at the academy have tried to fail about 20% of the class because they're either not fit to police officers, couldn't pass the physical requirements, or just plain don't follow the laws/rules. But the "higher ups" keep pushing them through in spite of the instructors recommendations. I asked my GFs mom about this and she said it's a very gray area, as is most things. But from my experience, and what I know about cops and talking to them, they do whatever they want when they want.
