Comes from upbringing. Their parents are probably mental too.

If the cops had shown up at my house even ONCE for something I’d done, I’d STILL be feeling my Dad’s belt marks on my butt...and I’m now 70 years old.

Of course, there was that time, I was 16....

My Dad was leaving the house and I was parked behind his car. I backed my car out, drove to the nearby intersection, whipped a u-turn, waved to Dad as he passed, was pulling back into the driveway and a cop car came screaming down the street, lights flashing. I realized I didn’t have my billfold, ran into the house to get it, the cops pulled up in front of the house as I came back out. Dad had seen what was happening and returned home. The cops told me I’d done an illegal u-turn and commenced to ream me out. They were more upset I’d gone into the house and come back out. Dad and Mom stood there stone-faced, not saying a word. Cops eventually left without ticketing me. Dad just said “Hope you learned a lesson.” I said I did. Scared the k-rap outta me. The next day, Dad told me one of the cops had winked at him as the other cop was chewing me out. Dad thought that was funny.

Our town cop cars had red bubblegum machines on the roof, fender mounted sirens about
foot in diameter that whirred for about 20 minutes when they were turned off, two big pillar mounted spotlights and a huge spring-loaded aireal on the rear bumper that went whosh-whosh-whosh, back and forth, when the stopped real quick.
Was necking with my girlfriend one night, in a town park, when all of a sudden the spotlights lit us up. Cops were set on giving me a hard time, I was just fourteen, until they realized that my girlfriend was the policie chief’s daughter. They beat a hasty retreat after letting us know that they would be up at the entrance to the park should we want a ride or anything. Before they figured out who Jane was I almost crapped myself. When they found out who she was I was really, really scared until I figured out they were more scared than me.

Good on Dad. The winking bit.

Bet Dad cautioned Mom before going out: “Let this ride out. Don’t interfere if you want to preserve some hope that I won’t kill the little twit.”
Dad’s have a fundamental purpose — reminding the little twit that: “I brought you into this world, I can take you out.” Mom’s are wired to not easily be able to say that. It needs to be said.

I grew up on a dairy farm in a small town. One day, when I was about 14, Dad told me to take the pickup to the town dump and get rid of the junk in the back.

A town cop happened to be at the dump when I drove in. He came over and asked to see my license and registration. Of course, I had no license. He gave me a ride home, and told me that my Dad and I had to come down to the station later that day.

Well, it was a small town, Dad knew the police chief, and he called the chief and got it all settled down. Actually, I suspect they had a good laugh about it but for a while I was sure they were going to lock me up.
