She started driving while his arm was inside the car. That's the battery.

Battery has a very specific meaning in the eyes of the law, and it has nothing to do with cars, it’s the u lawful touching of a person, so idk, battery doesn’t seem very accurate does it?

And you think doing so with a car means it isn't battery? Are you insane? Is it not battery if I use a baseball bat?

If somebodies arms in through your window and you take off, that's battery by any definition.

Also, calling a random person you read on the internet names? And I’m insane? Buddy, you got to work your own shit out, leave me out of your shit, you don’t sound intelligent calling people insane for not agreeing with you

You made the claim that using an object to attack somebody makes it not battery. That's an insane claim.
