Please please please tell me CASA are not so STUPID!!

I have no experience of FAID but I would imagine that as it was based on road vehicle data that there was always the facility to pull over on the roadside and take rest if you felt the urgent need,
If you carry that over to a EMS or Police pilot suddenly deciding that he is to tired to continue, will they be able to land at thier discretion and take a power nap in a field or maybe on the top of a conveinient skyscraper I think not.
Another case of sloping shoulders from what should be a more responsible organization.
