Do you confront jerks or ignore them?

I was leaving Trader Joe's today and needed to call my wife before pulling out of my parking spot. A guy in a BMW X5 pulled up at an angle with the nose of the vehicle in the ramp people use to exit the store, and the right rear blocking a handicapped parking place. He puts on his flashers and hurries into the store. My first thought was, I hope everything's ok... I actually wondered if maybe his wife was having some health issues or something.

As I'm finishing up on the phone with my wife, the guy comes out with a bottle of wine. If you were parked 10 yards away woul you:

a) Write him off as a jerk and go about your business?
b) Engage the driver in a discussion about his lack of concern for the dozens who have been inconvenienced by his actions?
