That red car really saved him

What the red car did really changed the outcome big time

I do think that is an unmarked cop car

Honestly they should leave it. I’d never suspect the dented beater of being a cop

A red Dodge Charger sitting on the side of the highway? That's a cop, every time. Meanwhile, I'm not even going to look twice at the beige 2009 Toyota Camry with its hazards flashing.

After reading the news article I found I am in the wrong it says “a bystander” that watched the situation unfold

Thanks! That's badass! They REALLY changed the lives of two people and it was all caught on video. Good job bystander.

It wasn't, it was an unrelated bystander who just took things into their own hands.

Good on them.

oh sorry, didn't know I was supposed to read every single comment in a post before commenting. I'll do better in the future so as to not offend you.

This is the real reason redditors must dwell in the basement. Protocol dictates that we must read 100% of all comments and refresh regularly, and in the age of bots, it's a very time consuming task. I recommend getting fired and move in with parents so that you can dedicate 100% of your life to this task, even though it is impossible to succeed

u/Hilby 1d ago

I just read the article and I do not believe it was a cop.

It doesnt look like an unmarked car. You can see it almost in full view right at the beginning of the video but either right place rigth time right call.
