hi @bogusbishop, thanks for reporting! I can not reproduce this bug, how does it happen?
I can reproduce this. but only by using a little cheat I've left in. The cheat is like this: When you get caught by the police and the message is "caught! press O to start new career" you can actually reload the page and it will continue as if you never were caught. But it doesn't sound like what you describe.
If you have the time and feel like it, message me on this discord https://discord.gg/AKkRWKBF (I opened it just now), and help try to catch this bug?
