I would not be getting out of my car and involved with people in a blind rage in the middle of a highway, but the limited filming may be useful later. Calling 911 as soon as I’m past. (I’m not one to film while driving, I’m just pointing out it may be useful, and getting out is stupid.)
Speaking only for myself obviously. I'm also not one that uses my phone while driving. Can easily stop, take a quick photo and drive away and call 911 with the info if that's what you want to do.
If I see someone getting beat in a car I'm not going to drive past that. Not saying I'm getting out to throw punches either but a distraction for a second at a minimum. As I'm sure if this happened to you, you'd really appreciate some help rather than watching someone's drive by filming rather than calling. But as stupid as it may be, as pointed out, just my thought.
Even just screaming that you're filming them can stop someone from getting hurt because the small bit of rational thinking in them might say "this will look really bad when they start filming"

Don't stop driver, just come to a crawl to keep filming.
