So you two guys think that 'Questioning' the cop means get in your car and start driving away while he's ticketing you?

I don't think anyone here is really saying the guy in the Ferrari was in the right.
What is clearly evident to me in this situation: The officer obvioulsy was fully intent on escalating the situation by placing his foot in front of the tire of a car that was obviously attempting to be driven away fully anticipating that his foot would be run over then justifying his slightly overzealous actions. Ferrari driver was stupid enough to fully comply with the officers attempt to escalate said situation.
CLIFFS: Officer baits perp, perp takes bait. Really as simple as that.

Resisting Arrest 2. Assault on a Police Officer FYI: When an Officer tells you to do something, you follow directions DUMBA$$! I have never been in trouble with the law. Why? I choose not to break laws. If an Officer were to give me instructions, I would NOT ignore them and do the opposite (you're just going to piss them off). This is almost as good as when you're watching COPS and a car chase ensues. When the Police finally catch the suspect they ask, "Why did you run?". 99% of the time, the perp always says, "I was scared!". Scared of what you a$$hole? When you see Police lights pull over. If you DIDN'T do anything wrong, there's nothing to be scared of. Fleeing simply compounds the problem. YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!!!

The Officer told him to get out of the car and not to drive away. Definition of stupid??? Hardly. A crooked Cop would ask you to deliver 250 pounds of cocaine to a "warehouse by the pier". Getting out of your car and accepting your ticket for illegally parking like any smart and descent citizen...not so crooked. Move along...

The cop may have been dumb, but I'm interested in what law gives the driver the right to move a pedestrian out of his way with his vehicle. The circumstances leading up to that are not mitigating. he knew that his car was right there up against the cop

I've got a very easy answer for you. He didn't move the Cop out of the way with his vehicle. Its very easy to see the officer moved his foot under the tire of the car. In a place where the driver had no idea if the officer moved is foot there.

The cop was a douche...plain and simple. He illegally detained someone which in and of itself is "breaking the law".

u can hear him tell the driver in the video.."You are going to run over my foot"

personally i dont think he should move his foot there..but i definitely dont think its okay for the guy to drive away. The cop did what he had to do to make sure he doesnt leave lol sacrificing his foot worked.

An officer issuing a summons...CAN NOT EVER...unless a crime is being committed, stand in the way, block, or physically detain a driver. the only way you can be detained is if you are under arrest. Hence why the founding fathers made the constitution. He was illegally detained by that cop. Also the cop willfully placed his foot and body in front of the car. The driver tried to move around him. he never ran over the cops foot.. The cop was supposed issue the summons...what is called an n.o.v Notice of violation. and he was supposed to mail it to the owner of the vehicle. That's all he can do and was supposed to do. At which point the owner or driver can appear before the kangaroo court magistrate and make a plea. NOW....was it wise to approach the vehicle and try to leave, no. I would have just let the ticket be written and deal with it then...or in my case I could talk to him, and ask that he have some courtesy. Either way I would not approach the ofc. with any rebuke or anger. Why risk that confrontation for chump money. NOW ..the verdict. Speaking arbitrarily, the cop, one illegally detained a civilian by using his own body as a shield. Two illegally attacked the motorist by dragging him out the car and flipping him. The driver did not resist arrest nor committed any thing to even be arrested. three...created undo damage to the motorist veh and the cab near the veh by slamming the doors. Property damage isnt covered here. Four arresting now the civilian without any real assault committed or any other crime. Offcourse, the ofc will say he was attacked and the car was used a deadly weapon. Which the vid, easily can exonerate. Whether the guy is a rich watever, or ****y etc..is null an void. The offfcer must uphold the law and be the bigger man. Instead his ego got the best of him, and he used excessive force and illegal detention as a way out. Now all 3 ofc their will have to write fraudulent lies to corroborate the initial cops version...hence they all will lie before the judge to cover His, the initial cops, wrong doing. the blue wall...again. So now if and only if this vid is admitted as evidence can this senseless rich idiot be exonerated. So he loses ...because the lawyer fees and all that far exceed the ticket. BUT...BUT...with a good lawyer u can recover all the fee plus damages, and the p.o. might be out of a j.o.b. ..time will tell

Also, can't speak for that specific vehicle, but I've had my foot run over by a car before. Not really that painful, at least not to the extent the police officer seemed to portray.

Again, much like having someone grab your hand and squeeze your palm in a certain way to make it hurt, it depends on how it runs it over.

I will say this............ If what happened to my brother had happened to that cop he would not have been upright to pull the guy out of his car.
