I know I’m not being totally fair as I was not there.  However, how did the driver not notice they were being trailed?  That car was on their tail, at least the bit we saw!

Good Point, many businesses owners ignore their surroundings, they operate care free. This incident is a good example. 

The business err also, they should have a arm security guard outside to protect their customers and themselves.
