I’ve also never had a cop park in front of my vehicle during a traffic stop so that “hitting the gas to swerve around them” is even possible.

Actually for police stops on reckless drivers, it's common for other police cars that arrive to park right in front of the violator to inhibit him from taking off, and avoid high speed chases.
