Note to 28-year-old Ferrari driver: Never run over a cop's foot

Especially a NY cop - not a great move. Also not too bright: Acting like a jackass while a 17-year-old is filming the entire moment. The jackass in question: Julien Chabbott, 28, who started a social media business called "Line Snob" and was apparently doing well enough to be driving a $260,000 Ferrari. ("Based on just that information alone," NY magazine notes, "he seems irredeemably unlikeable.") His girlfriend is Stephanie Pratt of MTV's "The Hills" fame, who makes a cameo appearance. From the NY Post:

Chabbot had parked outside the tony hotel The Mercer on Saturday at about 6 p.m. when a police officer approached and began to write him summonses for parking in a no-parking zone and failing to have a registration or inspection sticker, police sources said. Chabbott then tried to grab the officer's memo book -- and even got into the Ferrari after the cop told him not to, the sources said. Once Chabbott got into his car, he inched the vehicle forward while the cop said, "Stop, stop!" After Chabbott ran over the cop's foot, the officer hit the driver-side window and yelled, "You ran down my f---ing foot!" The cop then yanked the door open, pulled Chabbott out by his purple cardigan and threw him up onto the vehicle's trunk.
