Geez.
I am siding with a lawyer over a cop?
Times have changed. I hope the cop gets busted.
If it was important for the cop to stay near his car, he could have picked another restaurant to eat at. He could also have done a drive through.
The ‘lawyer’ description is wrong. Insert, ‘citizen’ there. This action is for all citizens, not just lawyers.
“..he could have picked another restaurant to eat at.”
This is probably the one where he gets his 25% police discount.
