    Wait, wait, wait. When the video starts showing the constable, he is already holding his leg out in front of him, as if to force the driver to stop. No kicking motion can be seen in the video. So it’s legal to just hit someone who is holding his leg out in front of your car (however stupid that may be), injure him seriously and then just drive away?!

      You don’t get to jump out in front of a moving vehicle, then claim they ran you down.

        Ok but don’t you at least have to stop and check on the injured person? I mean even if it’s an accident, you’re obliged to stop and help, aren’t you? Is that just a Europe thing? I’m not American, but it would seem like a very basic rule to agree on.

          No most of us sane drivers do. This guy was %100 in the wrong and breaking the law and is a cock wagon for doing so…but the cop is also a peace of shit for trying to ruin this persons life for an injury he caused himself.

          Maybe, but we don’t even know whether he knew the guy injured himself. Sure he was guilty of being impatient and ignoring the person directing traffic so I’m sure it’s consistent to keep going, but why would you even check on someone who kicks your car and falls down. Heck, it’s behind you in your blind spot, it would be all too easy to not even see
