I agree that there is a different standard for cops involved in motor vehicle "mishaps". However, I don't agree that it doesn't take brainpower to be a cop. It takes a great deal of brainpower to be a great cop. There are fools in every facet of society. Even doctors who are recognized as being at the top academically have their failures. Don't denigrate an entire profession because you're angry about the double standard that exists. What about politicians...a triple standard perhaps?
