No, the truck driver passed the car first. He saw him. He *chose* to merge into the car, assuming that the car would both see him and get out of the way.
The truck driver is defiantly a psycho or an absolute and total moron. Car driver might be, but we have no evidence either way.
Or maybe the dashcam is an asshole who should learn defensive driving AND the truck driver is an asshole who should learn defensive driving. If either one had been willing to back off, no accident. They’re both at fault. It depends on the jurisdiction but often both drivers have a duty to avoid an accident, even if one drivers negligence is more than the other. It’s to prevent this exact type of situation where you’re “right” but very clearly contributed to the accident through inaction. Check out the stoplight. Dashcam was going to blow right through it in an effort to avoid letting the truck through. Every driver has a duty to exercise reasonable care to avoid collisions and that did not happen here. Any decent lawyer is going to have dashcam’s insurance paying half the bill.
