ok so some guy slides into a cop car, and then they beat the shit out of him for it?

WTF is going on?

Thanks for asking, NR. I wasn't sure how apparent the situation would be without an appropriate description, so you helped my social experiment.

The police were in high speed pursuit of a suspect. Upon refusal to stop the coppers set up a roadblock, and this is geographically where the video begins. The suspect surely saw the car in the road and could have stopped, but decided to slam head-on (apply directly to your forehead) instead. The French fuzz took that opportunity to apprehend that stinker.
