Oh they do. if they think they can get away with it, they do just that.
And you know that for sure do you???
Or is that just your own opinion???

the thing is, they think you're stupid. and you wouldn't know otherwise.
You make very sweeping statements for something you obviously don't know anything about.

How on earth could they "know they'll get away with it"?

You don't have to trust everyone in power, I certainly don't. But you can't make accusations just because you have a huge chip on your shoulder about the police

I've actually done that test myself. But the main flaw is that on a games console you don't care if you crash or hit someone. And it is nothing like driving a real car.
