When you've got somewhere to go, but someone's in your way waiting for a parking spot to clear, what can you do about it? If you're a traffic cop with the NYPD and answerable to no-one, this is what you do: ram them.
An NYPD spokesperson said the traffic supervisor appeared disoriented and was taken to a hospital for evaluation. Police sources say he was not intoxicated.
The owner of the parked truck said he doesn't believe the incident was the result of a medical episode.
The incident remains under internal review. So far no charges have been filed.commenters on the footage suggest that pushing the waiting car out the way is reasonable. Maybe so. This, however, is a power addict totalling a $50k+ Ford Responder and damaging several other vehicles.
