Not only do I think confrontation is pointless and unproductive, it's dangerous too.
Watch out for crazy people. They're lurking about and doing us the favor of revealing themselves once in a while. I hope they find this bastard. They have witnesses and some photos of his car (absent the licence plate). Seems like some good detectives could work with that though if they care enough.
There is a world of difference between someone who does something inappropriate in their car, and someone who responds to being confronted by what can only be described as attempted murder. Of course we need to be careful but taking this line of reasoning and applying it elsewhere we'd be afraid to do anything other than just accept whatever anyone else does, at any time and in any place. If someone spilled our drink in the bar would we expect them to buy us another one, or would we be afraid to demand a replacement in case they pulled a knife and stabbed us?
