It's alleged the victim got out of the car and began to walk away before Smith mounted a kerb and ran over the man.
He became trapped underneath with several witnesses helping to pull him out.
The victim suffered third-degree burns to his back and other potentially serious injuries.
The West Australian reports, Smith denied hitting the man on purpose and said he was “just trying to move" his car.
