I’m rather (and, honestly, pleasantly) surprised that (based on the license plate design) this didn’t happen in the United States. I keep expecting something like this to happen to me; it does not seem to be getting any better where I live.

He gets out of his car with a whip in hand. (Who keeps a whip in their car?)

People who pay extra for that kind of thing?

It looked to me more like a riding crop than a whip. Is that better or not?

Obviously someone who needs things whipped. Duh.

This happened over nine months ago. Slow news day?

Are you disappointed? Oh please tell me you are.

The tactical whip is a thing now. They are legal to carry, lightweight, and are fucking vicious. They can draw blood, break bones, and generally suck be hit with.

Understood; it’s more like that family member who posts cat videos and banana-themed posts to Facebook.

That isn’t a whip. That’s probably a sap/blackjack. There are variants that have a spring-like middle part. Very dangerous and can break bones upon impact, potentially lethal.
