speedin... it is 2 my understanding that if a police is speeding in traffic they have to have their lights on.. where i live many police officers speed almost 25-30 miles over the speed limit without any lights or sirens yet they will write tickets to people who are speeding 6 or 7 miles over the limit (my mom got one for speed 6 miles over the limit and they wouldnt show her the radar when she asked!!) i personally dont have a liking for these (or any officers) and i am tryin 2 see if there is any way i can file a complaint... my question is when a police officer is speeding this fast thru traffic passing everyone up do they have to have their lights on and/or sirens...? i think i am correct but im not sure.. please help~

As far as I know, any emergency vehicle has to have the lights and/or sirens on in order to drive over the speed limit. I'm sure it's possible to file a complaint at the police department, but it might not do any good because it's your word against theirs. The most that would probably happen to these officers is the proverbial "slap on the wrist". If more than one person goes down to complain, I'm sure something more firm would be handed down. If you know of others who have experienced the same thing, encourage them to go complain with you. ]
You are correct they must have their siren on whenever speeding.. but they dont because cops think that they are high and mighty when really they were the nerds in school but anyways if you want to file a complaint its hard but it is possible if you are wanting it bad enough. You need to make an appointment with your towns d.a. like in pa the d.a. GOODLUCK WITH THAT ]
