A lot of food joints will give a discount to police as it encourages them to return. More police presence -- less trouble at their establishment. Nothing untowards about that. All police get free public transport as a matter of course.

The Crime and Corruption Commission, Infernal Repairs and WA Police Commissioner have stated flashing the badge for freebies or personal gain is an offence as comes under the same legislation as bribing an officer or accepting a bribe , hence why many WA shops, fast food restaurants etc, will discount for any emergency service personnel as a nicety for their dedication to service to the community.
