I play darts with the police team in Alice Springs, a couple of months ago I was driving through a 60kph section of the highway in town when a police car went past me at I guess between 80 - 90kph.
At the next darts meeting I mentioned this to one of the coppers, he said that they are allowed to drive at that speed if they are on there way to a call out, I said that I thought they had to use the lights and sirens to do this and his reply was that in some call outs they dont use the sirens so they can arrive un-detected.

I think he was making excuses.
