Yeah, that could take a number of different results that would be anything from the cop (assuming he has been briefed) saying “Crap, this driver knows his rights.” -up to and including - a full blown pursuit, lights, guns and beat down.

Without video evidence to support the driver in that case, I doubt it would go well.

Good decision.

Thomas and Alito probably would have wished to make some sort of reasonability test for how long, the problem with that is the STATE seems to take a BROAD view on what is reasonable for it and a NARROW view of responsibility for citizens.

My view and I think the founders is that as broad a view on the rights of the citizen and as narrow a view on the powers of the state SHOULD be the standard.
