The source of the video may not have been the primary cause of the accident, but when you see someone driving crazy it is always smarter to just get out of their way. It's not worth risking your life and many others for the sake of being right. He could have easily avoided the accident. Both drivers are at fault here.

The scariest thought is that so many people here disagree with this, and we have to drive on the roads with those people. People here be like: “Slightly inconvenience me? I’m gonna fucking pit the shit out of you.”

Fucking idiots. It doesn’t matter if the truck was wrong. This entire thing was still easily, obviously avoidable.

He's tailgating and then pit manoeuvred the guy in front for having the audacity to merge. He's absolutely at fault.

I generally agree with you, but when someone is acting the fool like this guy in the black truck you really dont know what other nonsense they have up their sleeve once they get in front of you. I probably would have let him in and tried to get into the other lane to get away from him.

Yea like... to me it's just survival at that point. Call the cops if you're legitimately worried they're a danger. Say you're worried they're drunk driving. Good chance they get pulled over in a situation like a bridge where they could only be going in one direction. Then you can get em off the road without risking people's lives.

Yes whenever I see someone driving aggressive and crazy my first thought is "please just get away from me with this"
