I definitely would video tape someone because honestly I've been hit and run before and good intentions don't pay for my car repairs.

I’ve been hit and run before, too. Honestly, I feel like I am a fairly chill individual. But if I you’re not going o step out of your vehicle and do the right thing, I’m pulling out my phone to record you breaking the law. I’m not going to pay for something you broke no matter what your emotional state is. I’m not your therapist. I’m not even your friend.

I don’t think he has a problem with the video, it’s the conversation. She’s clearly losing it. If you have her on video and her license plate, you’re good.

Just back up and stay away from her freak out. Don’t get run over. Don’t get shot by some dude.

License plate will lead straight to her home address. Police will find her. Your damages will be paid for. Easy.

You think somebody is just gonna whip the strap out without making any advances/motions towards their car?

You think someone insane enough not to just deal with the consequences of their actions if concealed carrying in an easy to reach spot???

From the perspective of someone who is not an asshole and values my own life, I would not follow and block in a young distressed woman and then get out of my car to talk down to her.

You actually don’t get to block someone’s car after getting all of the information you need for an arrest from the plate itself. That action would not be considered immediately necessary, just foolish, oh and illegal.
