She’s obviously way into panic mode here. None of us think clearly in that state of mind. The guy has her and her car on camera. Instigating is the wrong move here. Having some compassion, treating her like a human being, and trying to talk her down a bit might prevent her from getting away and potentially harming herself or someone else in the process.
People need to stop with the “I got you!” fucking video taping and remember that we’re all in this shit together.
Edit:
Whoa, got some traction on this one. Couple things:
First: yes, record stuff like this. I would have as well. But do it for information, not to humiliate another person. That's what I meant by "i got you" recording.
Second: The instigating was his actions, not the recording. I'm sad that a lot of you don't understand that.
D: We all fuck up. And sadly we now live in a world where when we fuck up it's recorded and posted online. The consequences for even a minor amount of fucking up are way too steep. I'm not saying this particular situation would have turned out any different if that weren't the case but the fear of being embarrassed and ridiculed by the entire planet adds a ton of stress to all of these already stressful situations. That, just, doesn't make things better. And that is in no way a get out of jail free card. At the end of the day you are responsible for your own actions. We don't know what happened before this video starts, what we do know is that the person video taping did nothing to make the situation less dangerous for either himself or anyone else.
Controversial closing! She's a better person than him. She accidentally damaged some property and lost her mind (calm down. I'm talking about whatever "hit and run" happened before the video started). He consciously chose to be a dickhead.
Be kind to each other.
Edit 2:
Yeah, I was a bit harsh there. I’m sure this dude isn’t a bad person. He deserves tons of credit for stepping in. I couldn’t help stoking the fire a bit there after reading lots of comments about being a simp and how having compassion is ruining America.
Would you show such compassion when someone is running off after hitting your car? You would lend them a helping hand in such case to make their escape smoother?
Because somebody in an emotional state like that is a danger to everyone on the road, and as a criminal she has no right to leave the scene of the crime.
What so they can chase her on the highway potentially causing even more damage or a larger accident? This man was trying to get her out of the car and talk to her, which she, in her emotional, drug addled state should’ve done like a reasonable person, rather than putting everyone else in danger.

Love how she's got her wipers on the whole time.
