I’m with the cop...she shouldn’t have driven off like an idiot.

As a former officer, I can tell you what its like attending vehicular accidents caused by these kinds of situations, with blood and guts on the pavement. I am sure that this is the context in which the officer was acting, and is being paid to provide. Good for him.
I am sorry they dropped the charges against her, She broke the law, regardless, and endangered the public, and then fled? She also has a duty NOT to endanger the public as part of her obligation as a licensed driver, and deserves a license suspension.
In a case like this protecting the public was paramount, and the officer was in the right, and he should have and did arrest her for fleeing. She was not injured in the arrest, and arrests are hardly pretty, or kind, but necessary in this case.Hardly a use of excessive force, or bad judgement. His judgement was bang on.
Good for him. He is a good officer and deserving of support, not ridicule.
I suppose his detrators on this thread would sing a different tune if she had run over a child or an elderly person in the process of her apprehended negligence.
I don’t see anything the officer did wrong either.
