American Beauty (1999)

Corrected entry: When Lester is in his car on his way to Mr. Smiley's blasting "American Woman" and openly smoking a joint, a motorcycle cop is shown in the rear window right behind him. The motorcycle comes in from directly behind him and sweeps across the screen. I would guess this is a police escort blocking traffic for the scene, or some less than well thought out background film. Either way, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense that he would fail to notice the motorcycle sweeping across one of his rear view mirrors. (00:56:08)

Correction: It does make sense that Lester wouldn't notice the cop if he's smoking up and jamming to music. Besides, he could have noticed but not cared. He's feeling very rebellious at the moment, and getting arrested would just take the cake.
