There are asshole drivers and asshole cops, idiot drivers and idiot cops, good drivers and good cops. I just bought a BMW and plan to get a radar detector (yuppie asshole, right?).
As has been mentioned above, it is simply be nice to know that there is a police presence nearby. If I choose to exceed the speed limit, I know that I may end up with a ticket. I choose to leave less to chance and to be in control as much as possible (this is also why I choose a car with exceptional handling, brakes, and safety features). Godspeed to all.
