Wow, that news report clearly shows she initiated and escalated the situation by crossing illegally, deliberately stopping in the way of the van, then antagonizing the driver. She certainly did not deserve to be run over, but had she not done any one of those things, she'd have been sipping her coffee, and safe. Just, Wow. Odd that no-one in the video seem to notice that part.
I had a run in with an Ahole driver a while back that started with him threatening my life, in front of 30 other stopped cars, simply because I pointed out that he ran a stop sign (and forced me off the road to avoid being hit by him). From a convertible, "Yo, that was a stop sign" was all I said. Years later it still makes be uncomfortable.
