Re: vistitation
The Court can force it, by holding you in contempt for violating a valid court order. It is unlikely that a policeman is going to physically force them to get into his car.
In order to avoid these types of confrontations, the best approach would be to consult with an attorney about the viability of restricting visitation. If appropriate, then the court order would be more supportive of your position.
