Who's David? 😕
Haven't really seen Heroes so can't really comment but from the bio's of them I have read on the website I can't see them getting past the Authority.
Could be way off though as I've never actually sat through an episode.

Why not? it's powers.Powers and abilities
Peter has been described as an empath by Claude,[1] and has shown the ability to mimic other powers. According to Dr. Suresh, Peter's DNA resequences itself to mimic the abilities of those around him. He is not conscious of this process, and whenever he is near someone with an ability, he absorbs it "like a sponge." When he acquires these abilities, he does not appear to acquire any of the mental limiting factors that other characters might possess. For example, when Peter first met Isaac, Isaac needed to take heroin to induce his precognitive visions (although he was eventually able to free himself from this limitation). Peter was able to have the visions immediately without using heroin.Originally, Peter had to be in close proximity to the person whose power he was mimicking in order to exhibit their power. During his training with Claude, as seen in the episode "Unexpected", Peter learns to access powers at will by thinking about the person from whom he absorbed it.
He can't gain Hawksmoor's alien experiment-induced abilities, or mystical abilities of the Doctor, or the Jennys' Spirit of the Century powers, or Rose Tattoo's Spirit of Death, I'm assuming, powers and so on. He gains the abilities attributed to the shared common DNA marker. It's not "powers" he's replicating, it's genetics.
Sylar actually seems like relatively well-adjusted, normal person compared to some of the sociopathic mass-murderers in Authority. His murders? Authority kills more people before their morning coffee. And Jenny Quantum and Doctor are able to manipulate time and space on MUCH, MUCH higher scale then neither Peter or Hiro. Rest of Heroes? Die in brutal and bloody ways, against anybody in Authority.

The Doctor and Jenny Q can
Time travell instantaneously
in particular Doctor can send the whole team/individuals/opponents accross time with a thought
Doctor can access the "Garden" at will and IMO not even Hiro, Jenny Q Android Hourman, Rip Hunter, Kang, or Phantom Stranger could penetrate that realm without his say so.
Jenny Q in Authority Vol 2 opened up inter dimensional portals on a planetary scale she would have imploded the universe and gotten away with it too if not for
The Doctor saving the Day with a little Time Travel.
