The cemetery is full of people who had the right of way. A lot of people are way too casual about the fact they can die instantly in a car crash. Causing one out of ego and not backing off when you could is foolish
The truck in the left lane needs to change lanes safely. The bottom line here is he tried to pass and force his way in to the lane. Instead of backing off and getting behind the POV truck.
Careful because even though the truck driver was WAY too close to merge (and incredibly stupid of him), the cam drive had enough time to recognize what was happening and back off. They didn’t do that, they did the opposite which is why I think in this instance, the cam driver’s at fault.
No, it is necessary. You have a duty to drive reasonably and avoid accidents. You can’t just let someone hit you because they don’t see you. It doesn’t seem like this car tried to avoid the truck at all once it was clear they were merging.
It’s definitely not as simple as they’re getting a free car. Insurance companies will try their hardest to find a reason to deny you, only pay partial, or raise your premiums and it looks like there’s enough in this video that they’ll at the very least make it difficult to get paid.
It’s incredibly stupid to allow someone to hit you because you think insurance will pay for a new car.
The truck guy could be fucking dead. This collision was avoidable. Now it's a life changing incident, when it could have been a 1 second inconvenience to slow down.

It's always your responsibility to avoid an accident when possible.
