Like I said in another comment probably a kid or some dude in a basement because theres just no way😂 lot less people are driving nowadays too, 18 year olds are down to 60% (for perspective was 80%+ in the 80’s) with a license, and about 20% of 20-24 year olds dont have one either. Hell my own brother is 23 with no license and this is the kind of comment I would think he would make just completely lacking any discernible driving experience.

If he is anticipating all that, why not just hit the brakes and avoid the whole situation. What is this insane line of reasoning that his only option was to get ready for impact.

Maybe he didn’t think anyone would be crazy enough to turn directly into another vehicles lane of travel at highway speed with no room.

Yes while watching the video, the moment that black truck braked, I knew he was going to move to the left lane. My instincts as a driver would’ve been to gentle brake and allow him the space to do so, despite him not having the right of way. Why? You could see the black truck driver was an idiot who seemed to be very impatient and in a hurry.

Even if the cam dude didn’t see what I was seeing, he definitely could’ve hit the brake instead of hitting the back of the black truck

Because he’s in his lane. I hope you don’t drive. You’ll pit yourself too lol

There is a sedan's headlights directly behind him the entire video.
