Cops: slow down

[TheMainEvent]

Let me say first of all that I have nothing but respect for police officers. They are clearly underpaid and underappreciated by the communties they serve.

With that out of the way, can someone tell me why cops have to drive so god damn fast. I was going about 80 mph on I-84 and one passed me going so fast that I felt like I was standing still. It was like a blur, he had to be doing 130. He didn't have his lights on either, so I assume there was no emergency. I know they are trained in driving but to me there is no reason to drive well in excess of 100mph unless there is an actual life or death situation. I don't care who you are, it is unsafe and unnessasary.
