Interestingly in France it's not the case (except for sequestration), but a policeman using his weapon will be scrutinized with the same laws as citizen without any special presumption (I'm talking about the law itself, because like in the US, DA don't like to charge policemen). I think the police of the police is famous for being tough when an investigation starts, there is probably no bail if someone was killed. For a ticket, there is a presumption of truth from the policeman (you have to prove he's wrong), anything higher he's a witness or a defendant like the others (still only talking about the law, judges tend to believe policemen).
