Well they typically have computers used to look up license plate numbers and such, so I assume that aligns with policy on electronic devices.
Ha right, I was thinking of the use case where electronic device usage is authorized, just not while driving a car. Like watching hours of security cam footage for an investigation.
surely they have the passenger do that though… like you should never permit a driver to operate devices while driving - it’s just wildly dangerous, and for what benefit? perhaps you might have spotted something sus?
Passenger? Cops roll solo everywhere I've lived (US).
