Sometimes your basic human instinct will give you that feeling when things just aren't right and in this Illinois case, there should've been alarms going off.
I witnessed how a driver in Illinois dealt with some wild animals blocking the road and I thought it was hilarious but I don't think it was meant to be.
I've never attended a training class for ride-sharing drivers, but I've got to believe that "Don't pull a gun on people" is one of things discussed before you hit the road.
