I'm still inclined to think that an /s is coming up in later replies. A bad story about cops and a banana motorist is that the motorist is dead, incarcerated or has a bounty on his head and is traveling around the world to ..evade.. his notoriety.

Cops on the road, who drive alone in their car, are entitled to a bit of fun.. or as Braithwaite put it, "more whimsy"!

Don't they? Help me understand..

No, cops are not entitled to Fourth Amendment violations as fun. Turn on the radio or something.

I am entitled to fun, too. That doesn't mean I get to pick kicking you in the shin as my fun.

It is not whimsical when the other party can legally kill you for non-compliance, no.
> entitled

Exactly the right word.
