Talk:Refusing to assist a police officer

Article a little too UK/USA specific
Are there similar provisions that one must assist a law enforcement officer in other common law/Anglosphere nations like Canada, Australia, New Zealand, ect.? If so, it should be mentioned in the article. 2601:8C:4101:C7C2:646D:FE82:2708:5FD4 (talk) 01:52, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

Further sections needed
Maryland - only case law so far and text relates to traffic only possibly DC leopheard (talk) 08:57, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

Tennessee - citation is stale, and the link suggests that it refers not to Tennessee state code, but to a local ordinance for a particular city. I have been unable to find a replacement citation in TN State Code, and that may mean that Tennessee has no such law, other than the particulars of various municipalities by ordinance. I would suggest that if we cannot find a better citation that Tennessee be deleted from the article. Corydon76 (talk) 14:58, 24 July 2018 (UTC)


 * The citations (and maybe even the text) appear to have been added by a bot. I can't imagine that a human would use "Error" for the title of a source. And most parts of the page are just copy-pasted from other sites (if not simply scrapped, as the formatting and unrelated text were also copied into the article).

 * Is maintaining a list of every occurrence of the law even important? Instead, it might be more valuable to go over the general breadth of the law as defined in courts which would be more valable (ex. Police can't make unreasonable/dangerous requests or the fact that this is the law that lets police commandeer cars). Chair eater (talk) 11:04, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
