She was willing to die to "get her point across". But, she wouldn't have burned someone's hand?
Simply handing her a traffic citation required being physically close. It's his duty to do that. Bar, car, or whatever location, there's no reason NOT to put something aside that can cause injury.
I'll not argue further with your viewpoint, though I worked with about 80 other officers who would have issued similar instructions to the driver.
