When driving I will sometimes temporarily freak out when I see one in my rearview, as I have a habit of speeding...
Once while driving a State cop started tearing ass behind me, to the extent that one second my rearview mirror was empty, and the next there was a State cop on me. He didn't have his lights on, and I slowed down, at which point he just passed me. It kinda jolted me though, as I had been speeding and the road is often watched by cops.
Other than driving though I don't really react too much to cops. They haven't been a part of my life, and I haven't been a part of theirs.
When I need them it is nice to think they will be there, and until they aren't I will assume they will be.
I have negative feelings towards cops that pull me over for speeding, but I think that is the case with most people.
