Seems like it would be. I had something similar happen to me by a cop in a C300 with normal plate even with one of those rented covers over the plate. The light turned green and I took off like I normally would. He then guns it like I was trying to race (I wasn’t) and once he took off I then actually took off racing. Once I was clearly ahead I slowed back to the speed limit and he gets on my ass all aggressive. I take my exit and he follows. When we get to the light I see in my rearview that he is in a uniform and has a light on his dash. As soon as the light turns green and we turn on to the next road he turns on his light. I pull over and he gets out and starts yelling at me. I stay calm but he keeps threatening to take me to jail. He asks me what I think he should do. I calmly said, “do what ever you feel you to do”. He calmed down and told me to drive safely and halve a nice day.

A friend of mine is a cop and told me it was probably one of the narcotics guys because they drive impound cars all the time. So I got lucky I guess.
