An Australian driver is spotted driving in Canberra with his license plate obscured by stickers. When pulled over and questioned, he attempts to flee, and almost runs over a police officer. This bodycam footage shows the officers' response as they use a TASER and pull the driver from the vehicle.

At 0:19 seconds, we can hear the driver, 29-year-old Mathew Druet, revving the engine in attempt to flee. He is promptly tased and snatched from the car. He was ultimately charged with driving a vehicle at police and driving without license. He also admitted he was under the influence at the time, which led to his poor decisions, which in this case included pissing off Australian cops with TASERs.
