FYI Androids have a feature for this. If you are ever forced to interact with a cop you can press the side button and volume up(might be different on other phones) to select lockdown which will force your phone to only be opened with the password. Its gross that we need this feature, but now you know.
Edit: Maybe:
You can instead hold the power button for 1 second to open the same menu. Feels easier to me.
Usually that just launches the Google Assistant on most new phones.
Ah, I don't use that on my Pixel 7 Pro, so it gives the old menu.
