People are weird. I'm not excusing behaviour but in some situations of chaos I'm in control and directing so long as it's work. Outside of work in those situations I can have a tendency of flailing my arms not knowing what to do.

IMHO it's bad but people who leave the scene it should be attributed to human nature the larger concern is after they calm down if they turn themselves in. That to me should be more judged upon.

That said, people, if someone is hurt don't leave the scene!
