He was given clear instructions and KNEW what he was doing. Just because the cop put his foot under the car you think he's wrong in this case. He didn't expect the guy to continue to drive off. It was reflex and posturing. He didn't put his foot under the car with the intention of stopping the car with his foot.

I'm betting that you'd try and sue the cop.

And this is exactly why I get plastic bags in my electronics that warn me not to eat the bag.

No not at all, all I'm saying is don't expect respect just because you wear a badge. No one else is getting it either. Respect is earned pal, or should I say "officer"

His dumb ass is the one that let his foot get ran over. Didn't expect it? He wasn't even paying attention, he actually stepped closer. You admitted you aren't that dumb, let it go.

Would I sue the cop? For what? I've never sued anyone.

Sounds like the smart thing to do play cops and rider's.

I'm a little surprised here. I'm against police brutality too, but this in not a case of that. That guy got what he deserved.

Sometimes you got to make an example or young teens with an expensive sports car will just walk all over you and think they can get away with it.

Then comes the bragging rights to their no criminal record friends in the suburbs "Look what i did" i believe two wrongs don't make a right. The driver shouldn't of drove off and the cops should have better instincts then put your foot under the tire "Just incase" he decides to step on the gas.

But, in the end he got a taste of what other dirty cops could've done i'd say he got lucky.

If you just had your foot runover..by a car you'd be pissed too ready to strike back not thinking at the time who knows what the cop was thinking at the time. I'm sure he seen the camera rolling i'd feel sorry for the driver if camera's weren't rolling he'd get a one on one lesson he'd never forget.

I've never been a cop. So I can't say for sure if I'd be thinking straight in this situation. But that kid came out, got in his car and tired to drive off knowing that the cop was citing him. The cop gives him the benefit of the doubt that maybe the guy is just getting in the car for something. When was the cop supposed to use his lawful authority? AFTER the high speed chase ensued? Then it he would be asked how he let it get so far. What he should have done imo is stop the guy as soon as the guy started getting in the car. I can assure you here in Bama that car would have never been started. As soon as he reached and grabbed the door the cop would have stopped him.

I think our cops are handcuffed with stupid rules sometimes. And we wonder why criminals have records a mile long. Maybe things should and could have been done differently but when all is said and done, the kid got what he deserved.

IMO as soon as the car started the officer should have broke the window in and grabbed that douchebag.

Let me ask you guys this....... How was the officer supposed to stop that guy?

Maybe there should have been different things done. But bottom line is I see no wrong doing by the cops here.

Again, if that car ends up on the news in a high speed chase the officer would be held accountable in some capacity.

Well losing your foot to save a high speed chase makes sense doesn't it?

Atleast no one got killed during this incident.

It could be argued that the cop went above and beyond. He had to stop the guy. He couldn't shoot him. He couldn't taze him. He could have stepped in front of the car but hesitated.

Many serious offenders have been apprehended by doing stupid shit. I'd probably have been thinking that this guy is hiding something. I'm guessing that cop had reason to believe it was important to keep him there.

NO WAY I'm going to negatively blame that cop for putting his foot there. If it makes him a dummy then so be it. No wrong doing happened to the dipshit driving the car.

Maybe he had illegal substance on him or in the car? who really knows..

I don't blame the cops for giving him a taste of his own medicine. I'm from New York cops have to put up with alot B.S. so anyone who steps on their foot or authority going to get stepped on regardless. It all depends on if their having a pleasant day or not.

We all seen police brutality and witness criminals out-smarting the cops one too many times. I'm sure his rich father will bail him out and fix any damages easily.

All i saw was a police officer being uncivil cussing in public and using brute force against a guy who did not even use one muscle to fight back.

I did not read beyond this post. The asshole probably is a spoiled puke. most people don't like cops until the need one.
This cop was writing a ticket and the guy tried to leave. The cop blocked his path and the guy contacted the cop with the car. At that point the driver commited assault on the officer. Doesn't matter if he was injured or not. All it takes is contact. I thought he acted a lot more civil than I would have. Then he resisted arrest when the cop told him to get out of the car and wrestled to stay in the car.
You obviously see things a different way and thats fine. I am surprised he didn't get a few nightstick lumps. He deserved it.

[alanhurst]

so at :20 and at :24 we see the cop purposely sticking his foot under the front tire, and then he goes into a ragefit when he gets it run over?

if you have the guys info (he is writing a ticket for the vehicle,safe to assume he already has the plate info) and he tries to drive off you let him go and have the judge issue a summons.

Cops was stupid,caused injury to himself and if i was the judge i'd toss the entire mess out and tell the cop to watch his behavior or else he might be on the recieving end of a lawsuit someday.

Not saying the guy with the red car was right (clearly he wasn't) but the cop put himself in harms way then assaulted a civilian.

I think you are right about Bama Randy. Everything in that car including the seats would have been on the sidewalk for a search as well. Try to run over a cop in the south and they will be looking for drugs. Barbie Blondie isn't just going to drive it away like that. The car would probably been impounded.

Remind us never let you become a judge cause we're screwed.

I believe everyone got what they deserved too. Ferrari guy, list of charges, some felonies. He deserves a month or two jail time, it was no accident.

Nor was it anything 99% of the population would do, Ferrari guy is definitely in the minority. I would actually be disappointed if he the has connections to get out of this, but he probably does.

Parking enforcement officer, pay attention, it could have been a lot worse than getting your foot ran over. Hope he learned his lesson too, don't underestimate people. I just don't care for how they jump out in the way, and claim "you tried to run over me" like it's something personal. Well what do you expect? You jump in front of a car you might get run over.

Who's we? I'm just a citizen.

You can't just let that guy go though, there's resisting charges that apply. When they say "get out of the car" you sort of have to do it, or else.

The foot running over, well that was just an accident. Unfortunately accidents never happen to cops. You ever get in a wreck with one that it was their fault? They try to blow you off and make every excuse to try to keep from being held liable, then their insurance is another battle, they never want to pay up either, you have to hire a lawyer or your car will just stay wrecked for a year.

Oh BTW, I'm really jaded right now because the Indianapolis Metro Police Department is very corrupt. There has been so much drama lately that the chief has stepped down to detract attention from himself, our public safety director has been fired because he made enemies with the union, and a drunk cop on duty ran over 3 motorcyclists killing one, and the blood evidence was thrown out on a technicality.
