Exclamation Help in search! Accident

MODERATORS PLEASE MOVE TO CORRECT PLACE IF NEEDED.
Feel free to delete if its not appropriate but this is just some serious issue that happened.

DIRECT COPY from the facebook post

PLEASE HELP!! . My mom was involved in a hit and run accident yesterday August 9th around 3pm going Westbound on the 10 freeway near the pepper, riverside exit. In the videos below you can see the person in the 2013-2015 infinity g37 coupe driving erratically. This happened in Southern California, in the city of Colton/ Fontana.
My mom was Side swiped and pinned under the trailer of a semi truck.. After all of that, the person in the Infinity still had the audacity to leave the scene. Justice will be served and karma will catch up to you guaranteed. Thankfully my mom was able to walk away from the incident with only minor cuts and bruises. Thank you Jose for catching this evidence on your dash cam and pulling over to help aid my mom, I appreciate your kindness. It means a lot to our family.
I need to catch this person, and I'm not giving up until I do. For any information please contact me or your local police station with any information.
Truly blessed no lives were lost. Thank you BMW for building a safe car structurally, but the airbags didn't ****ing deploy..

Incredibly sorry this happened to you and your family. I'm very happy to hear your mother is doing ok.

Cali tags, for passenger vehicles, are in a sequence of : 1 ABC 123

As of 2014, it looks like the '7' sequence was started. So by that guess-timate, the car was registered, with those plates, in the last 3 years.

That said, the tag looks like 7 L?? 574

msmching, not sure where this thread would be moved to so I'll just keep it here. Is this incident involving your family member or are you just helping someone you know on facebook? Irregardless, just a tragic scene, and horrendous what people can do in such times

Best of luck in finding who did this, and if it does involve someone close to you, very sorry for your family through this, and like you mentioned thankfully lives were not lost.

Godammit this makes me irrationally angry! Why the fk do people drive like this on public roads?
I see this almost everyday and even if I'm nowhere near the car driving recklessly I get seriously pissed.

I'm just really glad the person's mom was OK (I was already assuming the worst watching the video) and please definitely do not stop until the fking imbecile is found and locked up. F***!

Edit: Also the driver side swiped the BMW with the passenger side in the video but the other images show damage to the driver side so were there other hit and runs involved?
Is that a rear diffuser on the car as well? What an absolute fking imbecile

The video is reversed on the post. So it's definitely driver side.

Reflection on the defroster vents inside the car that caught the picture.

You're correct, driving in the UK made the reversed directions seem normal to me
Thanks for clearing that up

Ah I see. Just saw another video on Jalopnik of some Mercedes driver involved in 3 hit and runs that was chased down by a guy on a bike, just crazy

Holy crap I'm sorry that happened to your mom.

Maybe your air bags didn't deploy because of the lack of impact? Honestly not sure if the airbag would have helped or hurt in this case if it did deploy.

Anyways, I still think BMW does a very good job with safety. I've experienced an accident in a 3 series as well and I have nothing but great things to say about the car's ability to keep passengers relatively safe.

It actually doesn't involve any of my family. Browsing through my facebook page and saw this on my friend's page. (So in total, it's a friend of a friend).
I just believe the power of social media, maybe someone may know something.

Just a busybody, trying to help.

Good on you mate, best to give it as much coverage as possible to increase the chances of catching the idiot. I just hope it's no one from this forum

It looks like the airbag deployed in the G37 while the BMW did not have an airbag deployment.
