Check out the Twitter account @placardabuse [1]. It documents endemic lawbreaking by the NYPD. When civilians report lawbreaking, virtually without fail, the complaints are ignored — even when the violation is something the NYPD is ostensibly focusing on cracking down on, like “ghost cars”. Anecdotally, the vast majority of traffic violations I see are by police, and I have never had a report that resulted in any sort of action.
Your comment has a baked in assumption I want to question, though. Why do you regard police accountability as the most plausible default?
