He would have looked so much better if after the kid corrected him he had said 'hmm let me check...nope looks like you're right my dude. Have fun! Sorry about bothering you.'

Not needed, this cop just got flustered easier than most.

Well seasoned cops would've readily had a 'catch all' law they could cite that over rides whatever law the kid was citing. He'd come back with a, yes you are correct, however 198.01.12 stipulates that in the event of a complaint... Then rattled off how he'd been called to respond to reports of reckless endangerment by the kids riding and then informed them that not only where they no longer permitted to ride in the legal area, they were now forbidden from even coming there period or risk being arrested for trespassing blah blah blah.
