Hi Tom, as you were just saying about Obedience To Orders Of Po....
TR> RT> It is, and I hope that everyone notices that the keyword up there is
TR> RT> "reasonable". That does not state that police officer may try and
TR> RT> take my car by force with no explanation. That explanation may be
TR> RT> obvious or only take a couple of words, but without it........
TR>
TR> The key thought in just about every statute or ordinance that
TR> allows commandeering a car, requiring physical assistance, etc, is
TR> reasonable grounds to do so. In a case requiring a lawful order, an
TR> explanation would have to be given. You are right, the explanation
TR> might be very short, but it would be required unless the explanation
TR> was obvious. There would be hundreds of examples of required
TR> assistance which would be little more than common sense duties any
TR> citizen would render, with or without an order from an officer. As
TR> an example, it is amazing to watch how people care for their
TR> neighbors after a natural disaster.
I am in 1,000 % agreement. :^)
