As officer Dudley Doorite starts to hand the driver a ticket for speeding, a monkey sudden leaps from the back seat of the car and bites the cop in the offending hand. Thus, the cop learns not to harass some poor old citizen for a silly little traffic violation.
MONKEY BITES TEXAS OFFICER DURING TRAFFIC STOP

A South Texas police officer had to deal with some unexpected monkey business as he wrote a speeding ticket.
A pet monkey bit Aransas Pass Officer Keith Moore on the hand in an attack captured on videotape.
KRIS-TV in Corpus Christi reported Thursday that Moore had a video camera on his glasses during the traffic stop.
Moore is seen handing the driver a ticket to sign when a monkey leaps from the back seat, bares its teeth and bites the officer's right hand.
Moore says the monkey "came out of nowhere" during Wednesday's incident. The bite left a mark, but the 21-year-old officer wasn't hurt otherwise.
The trained monkey makes appearances at carnivals and other entertainment events.
