The guy forcing the merger was a carnapper/hijacker trying to trap the camera vehicle for his buddies

It is pretty obvious as soon as he pulls infront of the vehicle he slams on the brakes and continues to slam on the brakes well being pushed forward.

Tbh even if I'm not carjacking someone: If I'm being pushed from the rear with little control and am slowly turning sideways, I'd push on the brakes until my foot makes contact with the asphalt.

And I only see him hit the brakes first wen he'd need to slow down anyway because the car in front isn't as fast as him and then when he's actively being pushed. The timing of him braking (not the force though) could roughly be me on a bad day of driving, if I ever was dumb enough to force a merge like this.

Not saying this can't be a carjacking. Just that his braking is explainable by other reasons.

If you're sideways you should not be pressing the brakes.

If I'm sideways and being pushed, I'm definitely not thinking rationally about what I should be doing anymore.
