What subtler things make you think or notice someone is [highly] privileged?

One I notice in myself: a lack of fear about police interactions. I can deal with cops without worrying that they’ll assault/kill/kidnap me and drop me in the middle of nowhere for a laugh - not everyone has that privilege (though I’d call it more of a right) and I can only imagine it makes a big difference.
