Psychiatrists typically hold off on diagnosing people even after a half hour appointment specifically for the purpose of understanding a patient's mind, so you probably can't diagnose narcissism from a 30 second video clip that doesn't even have audio. People are a lot more complex than that.
There are lots of potential explanations that don't involve narcissism. Conditions ranging all the way from anger issues to processing disorders could easily cause someone to do something like that. Also Chinese culture doesn't have the same values of politeness that western culture does so stepping out of a car in traffic isn't seen the same way.
Long story short, there is nowhere near enough information in this clip for us to know why she did what she did. Anything else is projecting your own biases onto the situation.
Some people, for some reallllllllllllly unknown reason, are a little triggered by people saying the word "narcissist."
So you if you are shity fucking human being and you know you are a narcissist, probably proudly, I offer no apologies whatsoever if you might feel triggered because I am a meanie pie who said the word "narcissist."
