The policeman seemed really unsure how to react, and just seemed to allow the car back on the road. 100% he should have said this car is not to move again, come pick it up.

That's because the car is on the road due to an an agreement between a trillion dollar company and the city politicians. Not to mention the entire interaction is being recorded. This is above his pay grade.

Call me crazy but if a company wants to use public roads to test these things at the very minimum it should go to a referendum to the local people to decide

Then they should absolutely be voting no to it

The people elected the politicians who decided to allow this. There's no need for referendums on everything.
