  1. i honestly didnt know that in all circumstances an individual needs to call police. yes-if he broke bike, he needs to give his contact info to party involved…but i learned something new today. (hope i never need to put to practice).

  2. Maybe take the video down for the driver’s sake, it sounds like he took responsibility. As other comments said he made sure the boy was ok.
