This is sounding like a wind up to me.
I say whether a cop car is egging you on or not (as adam said) it is really your decision to race him or let him go.. and if you are weak, you'll race and deserve to lose your licence. I don't see a problem with this and nor do I see any point in pointing the finger at the Police saying he was doing it first!
Jantolis - Your excuses are somewhat skewed. Street racing is dangerous and what you are doing is illegal. It's all fun and exciting because you know what you are doing is wrong, so imagine the feeling when you actually get caught... or someone gets hurt. Won't be fun and games then.
Just make the trip to a track day, or make a trip to WSID after work on a Wed or even on one of their bigger events. Or even Driftland on a friday night. I mean honestly, there is a whole world of motorsport made available to us now that we don't need to get our thrills on the street.
ps.. 90% of motorists think they are above average drivers! (pps, I made that figure up but you get what I'm saying)
