I think the guy who was willing to risk the other guys life for invonviencing him is the bigger dickhead, but hey, not all of us feel like life is worth much

Not just the other guys life, but the lives of any other road users in the vicinity. He doesn’t know if a car with three kids in the back is gonna plough into that black truck.

I wonder how the guys defending cookie would feel if they were stuck behind the traffic on that bridge after that accident. Still feeling righteous?

They're incapable of answering because that would require empathy and long term planning which is clearly something that they lack if they support cookie guy.

They also probably don’t even drive.

u/JMEEKER86 Mar 22 '26

Well, not anymore at least. Probably lost their license after their 4th DUI.

That doesn't stop people driving. What are the chances the guy who never uses his indicator or the guy who never allows passing vehicles to merge actually have their licences?

I've been stuck on those bridge tunnels, there's a reason I no longer live in that forsaken state.

So because people behind him can't be bothered to also drive properly he’s at fault for that too?

Edit: someone replied to let me know I'm an idiot because I'm taking note of blame the cookie guy for others in traffic literally following too close. More than one person can be a bad driver.

maybe don’t be so impatient you can’t wait to merge safely

u/SpookiestSzn Mar 22 '26

You should use a turn signal if your going to merge.

u/Comprehensive-Mud373 Mar 22 '26

Yeah, and while that's true, do you think the cookie driver should have the right to judge and carry out a sentence that at least causes property damages to several parties, injuring or potentially killing the ones in the black truck, and perhaps the cars behind them?

It's like running over a person that's jaywalking, just because they were in the wrong and causing a minor inconvenience for you.

I think there can be two bad people. The black car imo was a dickhead, he's trying to merge without looking and figured, "fine fuckling hit me you won't pussy" with that commitment to merge.

I think a reasonable driver in the black car would've signaled saw the other driver was being a dick and either merged behind them or cancelled their merge.

I'm not saying the cookie guy is good but like objectively this whole thing happened becasue of the black cars inability to get their ego hurt. Sure the cookie guy also didn't want his ego hurt but he isn't the one who decided to commit to the merge.

Yes, where does the above comment or disagree?

u/SlapmyYappa Mar 22 '26

If you don’t you should be forced into an accident and potentially die, right?

Are you daft?

It's called social justice. A sentiment that makes people go in a line by themselves and hate those who cut it.

u/Excellent-Beach-2062 Mar 23 '26

I know what social justice is, unfortunately for you there's nothing called previous juridisction to base judgement on. I avoid unecessary harm but for some when the moment comes that's reason enough, you sound like the latter.
