Cops grab paraplegic man by the hair and drag him out of his car

Is this satire or real?

edid: i have those gauges and I would never take an adult out of car with children in the back. If it's real I'll find out who did it.

I wasn't sure if this was satire or not because is a cosmically bad look for the police and it shows a lot of incompetence.

I've got a couple of those window-tint gauges at the bottom of a drawer somewhere and they are simply not a good enforcement tool or something you would use at a traffic stop. It would be more like something you use AFTER you arrest someone for street racing or after a traffic accident, as part of an investigation.

To put it a different way: This is like a cop [using a penny to check your tire tread](https://www.lesschwab.com/article/tires/tire-tread-and-the-useful-penny-test.html), and then deciding to arrest you if your tires are too bald. Cops are famously bad at all mechanical stuff, that's why they can issue you a ticket that you don't have to pay if you fix your vehicle within a week. It is not hard for a vehicle owner to remove window tint.
