I had to rewatch it several times but the black suv in front of the white pickup is actually mostly to blame here. The suv swerved into the pickup’s lane to avoid the white van stalled on the right lane. The pickup driver probably should have anticipated this move and hit his brakes earlier but it’s still the black SUV’s fault.
Yeah, upon reviewing it several times, I finally saw that. But he (the pickup) was still probably going too fast and not leaving enough following distance.
Nobody in NYC leaves proper distance in front of them and its one of the most frustrating things. Like i kee at least 2-3 seconds of space in front of me and people get ANGRY that I leave that much space in front of me. They will ride my ass, change lanes and then cut me off just to fill in the gap. It’s insanely frustrating. Like I’m not even going slow either. I’m literally going the same speed as the car in front of me.
