Even when stopping for doughnuts?

The police exemption does not generally qualify that anything must be done for police purposes. There's also the fact that an officer could arguably direct himself, so it's arguable he doesn't even need his mate to tell him to stop there.

The police exemption generally does refer to policing purposes.

The police uniform part refers to directing drivers where to go.

The notion that simply wearing a police uniform allows you to lawfully direct yourself to break traffic regulations in the absence of exercising any policing function is a hell of a stretch, to put it as politely as I can.

As Earl Purple puts it, if the police driver simply says the officer in the passenger seat told him to park there, the council won't be able to rebut that, so this is all pretty academic.

The cynic in me would suggest that the CEO has a to issue a certain number of PCNs per shift, so anything's fair game for them - obviously this doesn't happen in real life.
Wasn't it one of Manchester's CEOs who tried to ticket a car that had obviously been involved in an RTC last year? I believe it was filmed and put on you tube.

Despite all the assertions to that effect, I'm not sure we've ever seen any real evhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-16746575idence of CEOs having any sort of target.

There was an Employment Tribunal in 2011 where it was proved that NSL had a clandestine target of 10 per shift.
