I used to pay a guy to hold a sign that would stand near him at the intersection and we got to know him well. He was making hundreds of dollars a day, anytime he wanted and even had a real job as well. Why assume police don't know him well and talk to him often? That's usually the case with people who do this, are the source of frequent reports and are often breaking the law by being in traffic asking for money.
