It was excessive, end of story. Once she was out of the car the threat to the safety of the pubilc was over. Nothing past that point was justified, and even the mannor in which he removed her from the car was excessive. If it wern't for the camera it'd just be another incident in which a citizen gets railroaded. If there was no video, she'd be facing multiple charges based on the judgmenat of an officer that based on the video wasn't good to start with. She would have been charged with resisting, assult on an officer, obstruction, the whole damn book would have been thrown at her and there would be nothing she could do to prove she was assulted. Drunk or not, she has rights.
