The bigger/real police depertments have PBA cards and badges that family members give out. Some people call them "get out of jail free" cards.
By the way, in some departments police officers are certified to visually judge your speed and it holds up in court. No need to even have a radar gun if you are blowing past them on the highway.
Doc, You got one of those for your family? I always get a kick out of these because when I was coming back from a Vikings game with my friend's family, his dad was pulled over for doing 20 over on an interstate. He flashed his badge as he took out his DL and the cop asked him if he was a LEO, which he quickly replied something to the effect "yeah, can I be on my way?" Instead of just a speeding ticket, he got a citation for license plate light out, crack in the windshield, seatbelt and speeding. Officer told him he needed to set a better example. Best part was the officer was my Dad's classmate and friend all through high school and knew who we were and really is a nice guy. Just got rubbed the wrong way by my friends dad flashing his badge.
