A 3-foot-tall macaw named Chip is in a bit of trouble over a traffic stop. The bird, who starred in the movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, attacked a policeman in the course of his duties in Dover, England.
Chip was not arrested, but is being held by the RSPCA until his unnamed owner is released. Link -via Arbroath
The officer arrested the woman on suspicion of driving while banned.
The attack came when he attempted to drive her car to the pound, with Chip loose inside.
The parrot, who has a 1.2m wingspan, perched on the steering wheel, pecking at the officer's fingers throughout the journey.

that would be a very large bird at three feet tall. If I was the cop ii would have just had the car towed instead of get into a car with a big bird!!

Probably measured to the tip of the longest tail feather.
