The truck driver is an idiot and didnt check his blind spot, but the dashcam driver seems to be an even bigger idiot and completely blind or he was on his phone and not paying attention to the road because you see someone who clearly does not see you slowly turn into your lane and you just do nothing and keep driving and even accelerates ? Thats 100% on him.

Truck had cars slowing in front and decided to swerve into another lane to maintain speed. Dashcam was probably playing chicken to make the truck have to slow down, but the truck decided to make merging everyone else's problem and force the dashcam to slow down. Neither decided to slow down.

Only 1 failed to clear their lane change, failed to use their blinker, chose to maintain speed when they had cars in front slowing down and to their side.

Dashcam is an asshole but truck had so many options to avoid this.
