In Chicago, it's more shocking to see a cop stop at a stop sign or use a turn signal than not. They do a terrible job of "setting a good example" as far as traffic laws go.

My sister's boyfriend is a PA State Patrolman, and they regularly drive 90mph+ in non-emergency situations. On nights when he drives a cruiser home, he can make the 30 mile trip in under 20 minutes. It is not just a unwritten "free pass", it's encouraged! Plus, he'll never get a traffic ticket from another state cop (barring DUI)
