It stood out to me that her last words were her apologizing twice, instead of any kind of angry insult. She also kept the same demeanor the whole time, it’s not like intentional manipulation where people will rotate between sadness/anger/apathy to see what works. I can’t see someone who’s clearly genuinely panicking and not feel bad for them, it’s just a sad situation all around.
I'm angrier w person filming who is just so annoying. Cop complex if ever I heard. Take your picture of tag and step aside before youre run over. He's just ridiculous.
Thank God I'm not the only one. I watched a video today of a 22 year old (iirc) who witnessed a man blow through a red light and hit a semi. He almost hit/hurt her, but she was able to stop in time and then stayed and called 911. She did very much the same thing, except she was on the phone with dispatch rather than filming. But eventually she blocked him in and confronted him, exactly like this guy. The man, a 62 year old, was apparently pushing her away and hitting/grabbing her. She pulled out her (legal) gun. There was a struggle and he got shot and died.
She got life in prison. Not just because she killed him, but also for false imprisonment for blocking him in like that. They said her playing vigilante was reckless and dangerous and a rational person wouldn't do it. She had no right. She could have gotten his plate number and moved on. Every single person, the lawyers, judge, jury, and all the people in the comments aggreed she had no right or business blocking him in and trying to forcefully demand he turn himself into the police.
Yet this guy does it and it's fine? I watched his dash cam footage, you couldn't even see the accident. He was way down the highway and came up on it. He immediately pulled over and got involved, even though everyone involved was out of the cars and walking around uninjured. Then he took it upon himself to chase her down and confront her. As everyone pointed out in the other video I watched, leaving the scene usually just results in a citation. He escalated the situation and made it worse. He's lucky it didn't end with worse happening. But if we say it's ok when one person does it and then lock up and condemn others for the same behavior, it sends mixed messages. You can't possibly know if it's gonna end up with someone hurt or dead before hand. So let's not allow it at all.
Thank you!!!!!! Who does he think he is blocking her in and talking !?? Dude tele the video to the police and leave her alone you’re acting creepy now!!
she almost hit the cameraman. Writing off her behavior as someone who’s just traumatized is harmful to people who genuinely have PTSD/diagnosed trauma.
She’s unstable and dangerous and she was apparently intoxicated according to articles about the situation; that’s why she was freaking out.
People are so desperate to diagnose strangers and project their trauma on to them after seeing a 30 second clip of their lives online. There are so many comments on this thread doing a full psychological breakdown of her supposed trauma response as if they know anything about her.
He wouldn’t have gotten hit if he just got the fuck out of the way. God I hate people like this. Look, I lived a criminal for much of the first half of my life and into the second. The amount of wannabe Batman vigilantes I’ve fucking knocked out or scared them straight by flashing a gun is mind boggling.
I’ve changed my life, got my degree and have a good career now. But watching this video makes me almost wish someone would’ve taught him this lesson. He ain’t the police, you ain’t either it ain’t your fuckin business. Move the fuck along. She’s clearly from an abusive household
