I guess that's the big question, isn't it.  Should anyone be above the law?

My answer is no.

And for what it's worth, I don't get pissed at the cops who write me up for
speeding.  They are just doing their jobs.  I get more pissed at the stupid law
that's there in the first place because someone decided that even the least
competent drivers can go at that speed.  Well, I certainly can drive better
than some 80 year old who can barely see over the top of the steering wheel, so
I guess what gets me upset is that they expect me to, if you will, dumb down my
driving to that level.
