Back to the LEO question, what if someone bought a police type car, painted/equipped it as such (with light bar, etc...) and never stopped anyone but just used it for commuting - obviously it would reduce any tickets or you could maneuver easier thru traffic. It's just an expression, not hurting anyone... right?
Hmmmm..... Maybe that is the conundrum that the Courts are facing in trying to prosecute these guys.... It's so "vaguely specific" and there are so many gray areas. I mean, with the police car example, of course it would make it easier for this person to commute, because people are intimidated when a policae car is nearby. Now, what would be hard to prove, is "was that this persons INTENT when they got/designed this car?"..... Unless we go into impact vs intent, which is "a-whole-nother" can of worms!

Now for Service members, it is cut and dry, point blank: You didn't earn it, you BETTER not wear it! Well, unless you are "SGM" Liutelli..... Reading that thread REALLY grinds my gears.....
