I feel somewhat responsible as I had the post before him stating the guy with the camera was kind of a... He coulda tried. There's a 90% chance the truck driver wouldn't have stopped, particularly in New York - but still coulda tried. But the guy following clearly knew what was gonna happen - camera up and ready.
My friend drives truck; has a cb in his car aswell - someone like him maybe would have been more help. When trouble is occurring, there is no telling if one can think what to do - I could say I woulda got his attention and saved the day, but clearly I wasn't there, and I don't know what I woulda actually done. But I think I wouldn't have been after the poor truck drivers fifteen minutes of fame with camera ready.
