Yes. A police officer is not exempt from traffic laws simply because he's a police officer. Any officer can stop and ticket another. Who works for what agency is not a factor. But the cold reality is that it would have to be a very clear and very serious violation before a ticket would be given. Too often the safety of a police officer depends on other officers and other agencies. If you are known as a cop who writes unnecessary tickets to other cops, that big bar fight can be a very lonely place.

Is it legal for scrolling license plate frames in NY state?
Unfortunately, there is a wide interpretation between city police and state troopers as to what constitute an illegal frame plate. Most police will interpret the rules as the license information should be easily readable and not covered with any material, assuming any material might impede flash photography. NY trooper statements published on the web support this view. City police generally also take this view. Some troopers over eager for tickets note that about a third of cars have a plate cover that touches the top of the words NEW YORK although it is easily readable and interpret that as 'obscuring the information' It might be best in NY to avoid the issue and not use licence plates. These are nuisance tickets but not having a frame avoids the issue. A Supreme Court decision in a state with similar laws found that the state has no compelling reason to insist the state motto is not covered.

What is the relationship between the us government and policing organizations?
There are two levels of police in the United States: Federal and State. The Federal Level includes organizations like the Federal Bureau of Investigations, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Drug Enforcement Administration etc. These organizations get their authority from Article 1 section 8 of the U.S. Constitution which ensures Congress' power to regulate taxes and interstate commerce. The FBI for example pursues criminals who have or are likely to cross state and country boundaries. The DEA enforces laws on substances that have a tax ban on them. The State level has three Sub-levels of police: State Trooper, County Sheriff and Local/City Police. State Troopers, also known as State Police and Highway Patrol, have Jurisdiction (policing authority) across the entire state but mainly patrol areas and projects that are maintained and operated by other State Level agencies, such as the Highways and State Government Buildings. County Sheriffs maintain and operate the county Jails and Patrol the unincorporated areas (areas not within city limits) within a county and provide policing services to Cities who contract the Sheriff's department as local police. Certain Departments, such as San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department in California provide search and rescue services. City/Local police serve cities and patrol within City limits. Every State Policing organization follows the state's Penal Code. County Sheriffs also enforce county mandates. Local Police follow both county mandates and city ordinances. Every state is self-governing over their own land so each is different in regards to their Penal Codes.
