Are there some countries where the daily interaction between police and citizens is not antagonistic?

In the States most of the interaction with that I witness police is negative: get pulled over for speeding, ticketed, etc. Even when they're doing sobriety checkpoints on St. Patrick's day, they're inconveniencing people who are responsible.

If the daily interactions between citizens and cops are like this it'll be very difficult to get people to change behavior.
