Yeah - great arrest! What a tackle and no one hurt I predicted he'd get himself shot. After a REALLY unpredictable situation with that woman and kid.... What on earth.
I was surprised to see cars sticking around.... just stunned at what they are seeing I guess. Lock your car doors always! - I hope I would have the presence to have driven away from anyone who came at me like that, even if I had to drive through another car to do it. I was pleased to see that windows aren't that easy to break.

My car doors lock automatically on everything I own except my 1969 Ford truck.
But suppose you're in traffic as these people were and some lunatic comes to your door beating on the glass. If he was armed with a gun I'd slide across the seat and exit the vehicle on theother side. If he had a knife of no weapon at all, as it appeared this joker didn't and I was stuck in traffic, I'd turn my wheels toward him and floor it in reverse even if it meant crashing into other cars. If he were right up next to the window and I did that enough times I'd eventually roll over the bastard. Would a jury convict me? I don't think so.
