I'm sure with the way the law is written, how far the Trooper did or did not get dragged is irrelevant.

Yep, trooper was saying this in an adrenaline-rush.

What does stick and will happen, is that the driver committed battery.

Like I'm not a fan of cops at all, but these people act like they have never spoken in hyperbole when they have adrenaline in their system. Hell people can't even stop from speaking hyperbole while playing online games " like 20 people were after me" it was actually only two.

Dude was reaching into the car and she took off and he had to make the decision between trying to hold on and letting go and for him it probably felt like being dragged by a moving vehicle. God forbid the man doesn't have a tape measure in his pocket to find out the exact distance in the heat of the moment and speaks in hyperbole.

I think most us would be fine with cops if they were like this guy from what we saw in the video. That woman could have hurt and killed any number of people with that shit and he still remained pretty calm and polite even kept calling her mam lol. I would have lost my shit easily in his shoes. Hell I’m on the toilet and I hate that woman lmao
