The guy driving the car was wordlessly telling the cop to fuck off, and the cop reciprocated. If the guy would have just asked the cop to not write the ticket, the cop wouldnt have listened or told the guy where to stick it - but at least there wouldn't have been this passive aggressive maneuvering of both parties. Then again, it is probably a fake - no cops I know would have let themselves be filmed while they brutalize a guy for a parking ticket mishap, I'm not saying that the cops wouldn't do that to a civilian, I'm saying they'd threaten to do the same to the camera guy, and then theyd go to town on the Ferrari guy.

Who naturally puts their feet under a car like that? But anyways.... imagine for a moment that someone ran over the foot of a regular person and that person decided to do to the driver what that cop did. Once the cops arrived he, the person who had his foot run over would get arrested. By that measure the cop was in the wrong. Now if we all get to counter attack well then, that's different.

Being charged with felony assault, vehicular assault, obstructing governmental administration, and disorderly conduct indicates that the Cop didn't set the driver up no matter what TMZ screams.

For starters, who was standing directly in front of the car holding a camera, knowing something was about to happen? And why did the cop deliberately place his foot under the tire knowing it was likely the driver would drive off? And did he actually run over the foot? You can't exactly tell from the video. The entire thing seems like some fabricated publicity stunt. Perhaps the douchemaster is about to get his own "reality" show and needs some exposure?

Same thing happened to me but I didn't drive off and touch the cop with my truck. I waited for my ticket, was respectful with the cop and even discussed sports with him due to my jacket. Not worth it for a stupid parking which leaves no points or record on your license. Just pay it and be done with it.
