Agreed. She did the right thing. Hands down.
I had a similar thing happen to me way back in the beginning of my career. Rolled up on a car vs semi, had the camera out, and was already rolling before I realized no EMS was there (I was a total rookie). Locked the camera down on a wideshot and ran in to start first aid if necessary. Fortunately they survived (don't ask me how) and weren't even that injured, so I went back to the camera and kept shooting.
Got yelled at for it. I should never influence events. What the hell was I thinking. Etc etc. Like I said I was green as hell so I just took it but now that I've got *cough* years under my belt, I wouldn't do anything differently today either. There are times when you have to put down the rules and regulations of your profession and start being human.
