Yes, within the law. Mobile surveillance can follow a routine into Philadelphia and back, from public places. Plans account for travel time, and work in another state is handled by a detective licensed there.

Yes. People rarely stay inside municipal lines. Work that starts in White Horse can continue in nearby communities such as Hamilton Township, Mercer County, Yardville, Bordentown, planned as one engagement and carried out by detectives licensed for each place the work goes.
