A hit-and-run driver rammed an NYPD cop during a traffic stop in Upper Manhattan late Sunday — the latest incident in disturbing trend of Big Apple motorists intentionally plowing into officers, officials said.

Police stopped a white sedan just after 9 p.m. on Vermilyea Avenue near West 204th Street in Inwood for “an observed violation,” police said Monday.

When one of the cops approached the sedan, the motorist kept driving and struck him – causing him to fall to the ground, police said.

The injured officer was treated and released at a local hospital for minor injuries to his right arm.

The driver took off in an unknown direction and had not been caught by Monday, according to authorities.

The crime comes just days after Sahara Dula, 24 – who was driving the wrong way on the Upper East Side – intentionally barreled into a police officer who tried to redirect her, cops said at the time.

On Jan. 14, a moped rider intentionally plowed into an NYPD cop who tried to stop him at 171st Street and Morris Avenue in the Mount Eden section of the Bronx, police said.

At least two similarly brazen incidents involving officers struck occurred in December –  in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and North Corona, Queens, police have said.
