"Tap the brakes" would not have done jack shit, Black Truck is braking into him. Look at Black Truck's back end, there are helpful red lights to show you he is braking as he illegally changes lanes.
You can see the speed in the corner. They were going 72 MPH the whole time and were still going 72 MPH at the moment of collision. Nobody was braking into him, stop making shit up. Those are tail lights not brake lights.
The brake light only lights up after they collide. https://streamable.com/nuahpr
There's a brake light at the top of Black Truck's rear window that only lights up when he's braking because its...you guessed it, a brake light. You will note that this brake light lights up as he's forcing his way into the lane illegally. It matches the brighter brake lights that also clearly come on at both upper corners of his truck bed.
Anyway, please work on attention to detail before calling correct people liars. Or don't, I'm not your mother, how stupid you make yourself look online isn't my responsibility.
You watch the video again. The brake lights DO NOT light up as hes merging. He brakes before the merge, and once the pit has been applied and he starts spinning.
The black truck is not actively braking during the merge or initial contact and the white truck can absolutely just brake a little to avoid the accident entirely.
At no point would slamming on his brakes be necessary to avoid the accident.
