I have friends that are cops, it is a sucky job for the money you get paid, but only when you factor in the danger part of it. In my community there has been one shooting in 10 yrs and that was when an overly anxious young cop shot a mentally handicapped guy. Around here these cops, start at about 40-50k per yr, which is decent money for this area, and then they get to take their squads home. I have seen cars from my town 45 miles away in Chicago, I've seen them as far as 200 miles south in Terrehaute , In., and the guy driving wasn't wearin a uniform, the woman in the passenger seat wasn't either, and the kids and the dog in the back seat weren't either.
They get paid to do their job, enough of this crap of letting cops take their cars home and run family errands and the sort on my friggin dime! Gas is still $3.79/ gal, plus wear and tear on the vehicle, tires are more expensive, oil changes are more expensive, it all adds up. ENOUGH!

I agree Captin Ron. This is one thing that you should bring up at he next city or town meeting. If enough residents agree it is possible you can create policy changes in your local area.
Good Luck.
