I know we live in an ACAB society, especially here on CE, but "That cop is an asshole for giving someone a ticket for doing something that is illegal" is a wild take for the majority to have.

If you were in the drive through and that same kid rear ended you becasue he was on his phone and idle rolled into you bumper, I'm sure you'd be all "Well, the code does time out, so I understand. I wouldn't want you to lose your free meal, after all."

And if the cop had said that was the moment he decided to ticket the kid I'd be a hell of a lot more sympathetic since that's actually provable based on what the kid themselves said, however that's not why the cop gave the ticket according to the cop.
