Throwing a bottle is a weapon.
Has it happened to you?

I can tell you from my experience that processing what just happened comes first ... and by then, the vehicle is gone. I've only ever managed to get a license number twice, and both of those times the vehicle was stopped ... once up on the median strip after coming within inches of hitting me, and swerving violently to miss me, while he was running a red light; and once stopped by my father while the driver was busy trying to run me off the road. The rest of the time, it all happens too fast.
