Maybe if cops didn’t break traffic laws all the time, civilians wouldn’t try to follow suit.

People in those kinds of positions of power should be leading by example, not running around like they’re above the law.

Could not have said it any better.

When it comes to following traffic laws and I see cop cars, firetrucks, ambulances, city transit, delivery trucks even. I would expert these individuals to be driving around as trained operator's and "expert's" and thus held to a higher standard.
