Many people feel that the very very rich can often be above the law. Not completely, but that often they can get away with things that poor people can't.

Ya I saw a post a while ago from a person who said they were an assistant to a billionaire. I believe they recalled a time when the person expressed to them that basically tickets were just fees to them. So if there were no close spots for them at the grocery store or a venue, they could pay the $85 (made up number) "fee" to park in a handicap spot.  Or it cost $125 to drink in public (cost of public intoxication ticket).

So not necessarily above the law, but can do whatever they want assuming they're willing to pay the ticket or the lawyer.
