Brave Driver Defends Black Family Against Burly Driver After Traffic Accident in Viral Video

People online are applauding a woman for defending a black woman who had a verbal altercation with a male driver after a traffic accident.

TikTok user @thaidixon133 posted a video to her account showing the moments she intervened in a heated argument between two drivers in the middle of a busy road.

The clip shows a white driver recording his confrontation with a black female driver while she sits in her car with a child in the passenger seat. Viewers can see both drivers shouting at each other after what appears to be a traffic accident.

It's unclear what exactly they're arguing about, but @thaidixon133 stops her car and interrupts the argument by advising the black driver not to move her car as it could suffer more damage after the incident.

“Don’t move your car anymore, just call the police!” she shouts to the black driver.

Then she addresses the white driver directly: “You, sir, need to get in your car and call the police!” And stop intimidating this woman and her child!”

The man turns around and shouts, “I’m not trying to intimidate anyone!”

“Get in your car and call the right people to do it,” advises @thaidixon. “Your baby is scared and you're sitting here screaming at him. Leave this woman and her child alone!”

The man raises his hands in surrender and quietly walks back to a U-Haul truck.

The black driver can be heard thanking her defense attorney, and @thaidixon133 pulls aside, presumably to wait for authorities to resolve the situation peacefully.

Many people have sided with @thaidixon133 because of her gallant deeds.

“This is a village I want to be a part of. I respect you for not just making videos and doing business,” one person wrote.

“You did an excellent job of de-escalating the situation with arguments and assertiveness. Well done,” praised another person.

“One day this child will step in to help someone who needs it because they remember how much it meant when you did,” one comment said.
