The policeman's judgement might have been less accurate than the OP's, but the law might have sided with the policeman.
I understand, and it's a personal decision whether you will comply with an order that you believe is baseless. I respect your point of view.
My response to you was just commenting specifically on the "backing up traffic" point, not the rest of your post.
