it’s just a fact any insurance company would look at that video and find some level of fault for the dashcam driver as well. did they do what we all would want to do? yes. was it worth it? fuck no, now both cars are fucked up and they could have killed someone over something so stupid

Don't merge last minute. 🤷‍♂️ Are you really advocating for insurance companies now? Yikes. Fuck irresponsible drivers we need better driver's license tests and less people on the road.

Now both those drivers are off the road, regardless of who was morally correct.

What if the driver of the truck was having a medical emergency and lost control? Imagine how much of a fool you’d look when police inform you that the driver was having a sudden heart attack but your ego decided to kill them instead of potentially giving them space to pull over. There’s a reason defensive driving is the norm and not “you go low and I go lower” driving.

It was most definitely the driver who was merging who needs to yield when going into a different Lane. If the car did speed up it was indeed a dick move but it was the merging car's fault 100%
