Video shows an officer smashing a car window after a man and woman refused to cooperate with police over a minor traffic stop on the Pacific Highway at Coffs Harbour just before 1pm on Wednesday.
The pair repeatedly told police they were not in their “jurisdiction” and “you have no authority here” when their names and a driver’s licence were requested.
The officer warned the pair that he would smash the window if they did not cooperate.
Police then smashed the window.
They had been stopped by officers as the car’s registration had expired, police said.
