If someone hits or throws something at your car while you are driving, legally it's assault with a deadly weapon, years in prison etc. Alternative to chasing them down like the scum they are is call the cops and wait for them while the guy leaves. Not happening.

In this instance you can't see the kid. Everyone's on the McLaren owner for rolling through the stop. But that was not close to anyone and had no bearing on the incident. A couple seconds later he honks at the kid. Why? Maybe the kid was heading straight for him and he was warning him. Maybe the kid gave him the finger or spit on his car. Who knows. But getting his windshield broken is assault. A punk running off gets away with it unless you go after him. In that case he learns a valuable lesson in respect for others and their possessions.

And in this link there is info from the camera guy saying the driver made the skateboarder fall off his board and then he smashed the windshield..basically on purpose. So, that clarifies a little. And they caught the kid.

The camera guy says the driver made him fall off his board. Obviously we don't know if he cut him off or if it was a near miss. Taking your idea on this situation, if the driver was an ass and almost hit him, the skateboarder should have just called the guy out of the car and beat his ass with the skateboard.

Yeah maybe the pedestrian cut the car off in the crosswalk that failed to stop at a stop sign, makes sense.

and you'd be in jail for assaulting a minor.....plus a civil claim about how the kid had to miss school, medical care, special teaching costs, special transportation etc so paying up those costs plus the legal costs.
You think the police or a judge care about a broken windshield when a kid is beat up by an adult?

So I dont know what the guy tries to accomplish by running after the kid. He cant do anything, not even touch the kid. He should be going to the police for a report and then call his insurance. Thats what grown ups do.
You can only use force in defence. Running after a kid is not defence.

Skateboarder should have verbally replied, not assaulted him.

Where do you live? If you get assault with a deadly weapon you can use deadly force to protect yourself, ie. Run over the kid is legal.

Reality I would have grabed the kid, it he was a minor, and called the cops. A 20 year old would have had me sitting on his ass till they arrived.

Hitting a car with a spit ball in the eyes of the law is the same as dropping a cinder block off an overpass.

I heard about this on local radio this morning. The driver was definitely in the wrong, but it still doesn't give the kid a right to do what he did. They should both be ticketed, and so should the guy filming vertically. How difficult is it to turn your phone 90 degrees people!

You think so?
You think its black and white?
I can assure you.... it isnt. Severity and possible consequences are equally important.
In the first place the mclaren driver has an obligation to take into account that there are weaker traffic participants (in this case pedestians, at a zebra crossing no less).
He almost runs over one.
Also you cant use violence if you feel assaulted but the danger is gone (literally gone, the kid runs away). You cant be your own judge and jury. Thats a task for the police. They are empowered to handle this, to prevent people taking matters in their own hands.

Here in America, you can do whatever the fuck you want...




if you have money, which this McLaren guy obviously does.


Also, why is everyone getting on the driver for this? It was his passenger who ran after the kid.

typical Neanderthals having neaderthal-like disagreements... so a simple issue where no one gets hurts gets escalated with charges for criminal mischief/vandalism being filed....and if the driver had no restraint himself, may get assault charges too.

It's just going to end up costing both sides a lot of money and time.

Think before you act. It use to be, if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. Today, don't do the crime, because you can't afford it.

Fuck that Mclaren owner. He rolled right past the solid white line, past the stop sign. Fuck him. He deserved getting his windshield smashed. Don't know how to drive, don't get behind the wheel. Fuck that guy's ego.


Mclaren ran stop sign. Kid is skateboarding and almost gets run over. Clearly driver does not give a shit that there are pedestrians or the skateboarder is trying to cross the street. Mclaren driver has an ego probably because he thought he could make the turn and the skateboarder would wait. Then has the audacity to honk the horn as if the kid was in the wrong. Kid gets pissed and smashes windshield.

My opinion, Mclaren driver got what was coming to him. Fuck him and his ego. Next time don't run a stop sign and honk the horn like a jackass.

Because a decent human being gets out of his vehicle to ask if the kid he hit in the crosswalk is okay , apologizes and doesnt blow his horn like some entitled bitch who's been inconvenienced.

God dammit why is this thread 3 pages long?

Fuck the MacLaren driver for running the stop sign.
Fuck the punk with the skateboard for smashing the window.
Fuck the cameraman for filming vertically.

I didn't read a word of this thread because I cannot comprehend what on earth you guys are babbling on about lol.
