Had the same experience in Iowa. I can’t remember dollar amount they said in dispatch. They were just too busy to show and really just wanted to make sure we got our cars out of traffic. Guy that ran a red light managed to hit two cars. Lots of people stopped with contact info if we needed witnesses. It was fine although us and the other car he hit underestimated our damages. Dude that hit us was reaching for his burrito in the back seat.
Racist Hawk fans at it again

I would think there had to have been something before this to provoke the woman to start recording. Otherwise, the white privilege comment doesn't make sense in the context of the conversation.
So someone telling a white person they benefit from white privilege is equivalent to a white person telling a person of color they don't belong in this country?
You are saying this as if Hawkeyes let alone drunk Hawkeyes can think reasonably. I suppose the guy could have been so drunk that he couldn't walk straight therefore not wanting to incriminate himself further.
What I don't get is that whether or not you would normally call the police in a fender bender when you realize the other person is drunk and possibly not in any condition to be driving in the first place there should be no question about calling the police. You could be saving someone else's life not just a fender bender.
I didn't say they were equivalent. I said ranking them is pointless. They are both wrong. Both should STOP IT. One does not justify the other, nor does either come out looking like a winner. We should celebrate neither because neither acted like adults.
All we know is something caused this person to get their phone out. They weren't recording the whole conversation. Then one person said racial slurs. That's it. I we don't know if the other side did anything AT ALL.
We'll have to agree to disagree then. You can clearly rank the two. It's not even close. If someone is this triggered by someone else pointing out white privilege, then they need to take a long look at themselves.
There was an accident they were involved in and it is mentioned to record or take pictures of everything. That could have been the reason to start recording.
Good point on the recording. The guy in the truck should have just rolled his window up, in my opinion.
This was pretty uncomfortable.
Why can't people just behave and be nice to others? [rhetorical, LOL]
...who I think said, "What did I tell you people!"
Yes, but many times something like that makes a prospective employer steer away before they even invite someone for an interview. You may never get a chance to explain it away because you may never know they saw it or that it was the reason your resume' ended up in round file.
The daughter of the mistaken person tried to yesterday, but people went after her anyways.
Everybody knows you should keep your burritos in the front seat.
He apparently knows better than to attempt to interject calm and order into any rant conducted by his wife.
I got the feeling he wanted to share what he has to live with everyday with the world.
