Hmmm...this is where I slightly disagree with you. Think about it, you're some 125# geeky twink (making an assumption, not sure of the guy's stature) who probably can't drive and just accidentally cut off Lucifer himself, and are scared $hitless! Fear kicks in, and you try to get away. But, the POS rental you're driving lacks punch and Lucifer strikes his wand, appears before you with his evil horns, and threatens to make your life living hell.

At this point, adreneline joins that fear as you're scared for your life, and you've got survival instinct to do any and everything necessary to survive. You conquer Lucifer to the best of your abilities - by running him over - but that adreneline does not die down so quickly...you're still in fight mode until a block away, which is where REALITY kicks in!

I don't know what world you live in, but, most folks I know do not quite register what happened so quickly. I'm actually surprised he stopped merely a block away. Had it been me, being so crazy, I likely would have still tried to beat the crap out of the big guy, regardless of his size. However, it makes total sense to me why a guy intimidated by someone's huge size could do as I described above. Remember, not everyone thinks like yourself, and it seems pretty clear this young guy was trying to avoid the situation.

In any event, bully or not, this is a disaster for the family of the deceased (not sure I can call him a victim), and will more than likely deeply affect the suspect his entire life. Such a calamity.
