Incidentally it seems that there is a suspicion in the USA that "speeding citations" are being used to generate revenue in America, too.

Perhaps the cop jumped the gun a little on the use of 'less lethal' force, but you only have to watch a couple of the 'Cops on Camera' type shows to see how often a seemingly routine traffic stop can go wrong. The cop is in a completely unknown situation, totally alone.

My major criticism here would be how he left the guy lying at the side of the road (in the carriageway?) whilst he went to talk to the passenger. Another scenario that seems to crop up often, on the aforementioned shows, is a distracted driver piling into the side of the stopped vehicle, which would have been curtains for the suspect here!

Suspicion... FACT!...

“It has never been the rule in this country – I hope it never will be - that suspected criminal offences must automatically be the subject of prosecution” He added that there should be a prosecution: “wherever it appears that the offence or the circumstances of its commission is or are of such a character that a prosecution in respect thereof is required in the public interest”
This approach has been endorsed by Attorney General ever since 1951. CPS Code

Yes, sorry! I was using the term "suspicion" in a slight Unorthodox sense as in: "they are thieving robdog vermin, just like our government!"
