mean and it's interesting because his biggest inspiration as a painter was hopper and if you look at benders film some of the scenes look like they were taken directly from what i would hope for a painting and also like copper he was really inspired by sort of american iconic graffiti you know the big wide open spaces the the the empty highway the the neon lights in the cities but because vendors wasn't american isn't american he looked at these images from a distance sort of a bit of an alienated way and and saw them and made them look seem strange and different and i think that's probably how why it's inspired so many also american directors to take a look at these images that they think they know so well and see them with sort of new foreign eyes with the eyes of the inventor. he inspired many as you said but he was also a bit of a technical pioneer wasn't it yeah that's quite interesting because most art house directors are a lot of artist directors are sort of obsessive. fans or don't like to mess around with digital tools vendors is the exact opposite he was one of the 1st directors to

let's keep in mind in discussing this issue that this involves fender-benders.doesn't involve situations where there is an injury. and i think that they've made clear, in those situations where there is an injury, if you get into who was at fault, the significance of the severity of the injury, those will see a police response. so i don't think it implicates liability in terms of legally, at this point. it depends upon how it's administered. it's a good first step. we're thinking outside of the box, a new normal. what officers can be valuable, what they can't be and we're in a pandemic and it's important to keep everyone safe. to that extent, it's a good first step. let's assess it moving forward and see how it works and where else, if anywhere, it could be implemented successfully. >> joey jackson, cedric alexander, appreciate you both joining us this afternoon. thank you. >> thank you, erica. >>> just ahead -- they claim to have just one suspected case of coronavirus. and they also say a covid vaccine is already in clinical trials. up next, a look into north k
