Try driving away from a cop in Texas...

I though this court's decision was interesting.

The Appeals Court in Idaho decided a man was free to drive away from an officer who knocked on his window (and was found with meth) when the officer knocked on his window to ask him what he was doing. Because the Officer was not blocking his path with either his body or his vehicle, he could have legally driven off and ignored the knock and therefore
avoided the arrest.

I don't think that would fly in Texas. But I think it's an interesting case and I like the logic.
