Mojo and I travel a lot - back and forth across the US on road trips around a dozen times now. We've seen some really horrible wrecks and I can say that I know for a fact I would help in any feasible way. Yes, it changes your perspective to have kids. But the desire to help is still over-powering. Both Mojo and I have saved lives in the past, even if simply by calling 911, but with kids it's usually one OR the other of us that's approaches a potentially dangerous scene. (He actually saved his grandmother's life when she was choking back when he was in grade school - so it's a long standing "problem" we have!) It does worry me that it will result in the loss of one of us, but what else can we do? If you can help, by all means DO! I don't think that it would even cross my mind that my phone _can_ tape at a time like that. If Mojo approached the car to see what he could do then I would be on the phone with 911. (As happened with a flipped over truck on an abandoned Florida interstate in the middle of the night - which turned out to have had a fatality.) I didn't record anything...
