Not gonna flame ya, but I'll disagree. This was a righteous shoot. The motorcyclist did right by following her to the street that she lived on. She had already been into her house (to retrieve the gun) and CAME BACK OUT to point at and perhaps use the gun on a guy that simply wanted to let LEO's know where she lived and what happened. Upon seeing the woman bring the gun up, he popped her a few times. That's as legit a reason as any to put someone down for a dirt nap. Regardless of how you would have handled the accident portion, this person decided they weren't taking a chance at letting someone skate from an INTENTIONAL hit and run. As has been relayed by several folks in this thread: the probability of the vehicle, plates, or the combination thereof being stolen, outdated, or otherwise untraceable was fairly high. Descriptions based on color and make are extremely difficult to trace as well. How many blue Kia's do you think are running around Daytona Beach and the surrounding areas? I'm gonna say more than a few.
Perhaps you've never dealt with an insurance company regarding hit and runs. It's not a very easy process to go through and you'll feel as if you were treated almost as if YOU were the one that caused the damage.
