Driver rides off with parking officer on hood of the car

At first sight, this photo may appear fake, but it is very real. A San Francisco driver took a parking officer on a 12 block ride of terror on the hood of her car, according to reports.

Eye witness Allison Yates told Kron 4 that she saw the driver was "zooming down" Oak Street in San Francisco at about 10:15 a.m. on Thursday morning.

"I saw her go by and realized there was a guy on the hood on his back, hanging on kind of spread-eagled. She turned right from that far left lane across all lanes of traffic onto Octavia. We caught up to her around Market-she was screaming, he was screaming, it was insane."

"I have no idea what started her on this drive of terror, and no idea why this dude did not get off her car, but I was pretty relieved the cop showed up as the light turned green. I'm positive she would have driven onto the freeway on-ramp with this guy on her hood."

The driver has been identified Bo Monsoumbath, a 33-year-old woman from San Francisco. In her defense, she says she was sexually harassed but did not intend to run-over the officer.

"I was terrified. I'm still terrified," she said.

Monsoumbath said the officer asked her to "do things instead of getting a parking citation which led me to believe he was posing as a meter maid."

"I am still shaken up by the whole situation. I was sexually harassed then had a man jump on my car. I never tried to run that meter maid over. It's clear I'm at a stop in the pic and I made several stops," Monsoumbath said.

Yates took the picture showing the officer on the hood of the car and says Monsoumbath was visibly upset.

"She kept, 'yelling you're scaring me,'" Yates said.

Monsoumbath was arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon and misdemeanor hit and run.
