Police rights

[xjustquietx.livejournal.com]

I'm getting nowhere on Google so I'm wondering if anyone here knows the answer. I was walking along Orchard St. when I saw a Somerville Police car going the wrong way. It didn't look like they had to be anywhere fast; their lights weren't on. They were in danger of running into an oncoming car going in the right direction.

Do cops here have that kind of freedom or were these guys just ignorant of/ignoring the rules?

I think police cars follow same traffic rules that bicyclists do.

that translates to, "they do basically whatever they feel like doing."

Some of us bicyclists really do follow the traffic rules, you know.

You're free to shoot the rest of them.
