My understanding is police crusers also run over max pressure tires. It gives them more precise handling, longer life, and a little more performance from the lower rolling drag.
In my case, maximum sidewall pressure, 51 psi, accomplishes my goals so I'm happy. But I would have no problem with running up to 60 or 70 psi.
