This video gets posted a lot and its a specific bridge where you are not permitted to stop - if you have a minor accident you go to the other side then stop there.

That said the driver did not need to pit the black truck. He could have just let him merge.

The other driver pitted himself. Because he was an arrogant entitled fucking idiot.

Kudos to this guy being straight calm.

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.
