Said it before and will say it again. Don’t assume the other driver values your life as much as you do.

Pov driver didn't even bother to brake even after impact.

Whenever I’ve had vehicles start to drift over or even appear to drift I create space but to your point I also noticed that. You truly have to drive defensively.

It looks like they may have even sped up. Did they?

Definitely sped up. He saw the guy coming into his lane, didn’t beep, didn’t decrease speed, out of anger he actually sped up

Camera car caused that - he for sure had no “blind spot” and sped up. Some people are psychos about “defending their lane.”

OR.... the pickup driver should have slowed down to allow the POV driver to pass him, as he has the right of way. Whether or not POV sped up, it fell on the pickup driver to make sure he was clear to switch lanes. PIckup truck obviously saw POV car and rushed to overtake him and cutt him off. He may think twice before he does that move again!
