This deputy needs some serious remedial training! He should have told the this kid not to sit/stand near his bumper or between the vehicles. This is a big NO, NO, in a LEO's work. Always tell folks to pull farther over on the shoulder or move to a safer place for this very reason. Yes, this guy had a bad day but it could have been much worse.
That's the first thing I thought when I saw this. If that truck had hit the rear end of the cop car square on that kid would have been sandwiched between the two vehicles, but I see this a lot when the officer has asked someone to get out of their car on dash cam footage but isn't actively detaining them.
