61. He addressed the apparent lack of a call for a supervisor.

He didn't weigh in on the legality of the order to exit the vehicle, so no, he doesn't agree with you that it was unlawful, per the source you provided.

Could they and should they have handled it better? Absolutely. A supervisor may have been able to get him to comply with the order to exit the vehicle. But if he had continued to refuse, then at that point it would have played out the same way.

What should they have done at that point, in your opinion? If an officer asks him to exit, then tells him to exit, then a supervisor asks him to exit and tells him to exit, and he continues to refuse, what then?
