RE: It hurt me to watch it.
damn that would make me so mad. id pull over and tell the real story too.
woman in a big lexus SUV ran a red light in our town in a spot where people usually dont turn out of the other spot. well there was a person turning and this lady runs right through the light. i was afraid to beep because i thought she would look back and then nail the car that was in front of her. so luckily she hit the brakes.

Are we really that jaded?
People are making this out to be a heroic act or something. Granted he did the right thing as I believe most people would in this situation.
I have witnessed a couple accidents in my time on the roads and never even had to give it a second thought. I stopped and made sure people were OK and waited around to give a witness statement to the police.
Of course I am the type of guy who will pull over and help a stranded motorist 9 times out of 10.
Maybe I was just raised right, who knows?
It is a sad statement about society when something as simple as this seems like a person went above and beyond.
