I was pulled over in Canberra for accelerating to get to a filter lane infront of another car, i never sped nor did i chirp the tyres. When i pulled over he asked for my licence, this is where it is good for me, but still wrong, he noticed im in the army and stopped talking down to me and just talked to me. He let me off and warned me to get my exhaust checked cos it might be too loud and 'you wouldn't wanna get a defect'. The point of the story, double standards. If i was another cop and he thought i had broken the law then realised i was another cop, then he woulda let me off. No one is above the law not even cops and abuse of power in any force is never tollerated. Make a formal complaint if you are ill treated, but make it after the incident and try and get a hold of a higher rank. Just be polite during the incident then the cop wont have a leg to stand on.
Sorry about the long wind.
