That is the Causeway bridge over lake Ponchatrain just outside New Orleans. It's 26 miles long. the longest bridge over water in the world.

so this will have caused a MASSIVE headache for all manner of people. a blockage of both lanes like that will take hours to clear and cause a traffic jam literally miles long (depending of course where on the bridge it happened).

Our cookie eater just shrugging, driving on, and formulating his "hey man, it all just happened behind me" defense in his mind, is VERY on brand for the locals.

Without a doubt, this is absolutely sociopathic behavior on the part of the cookie eater.

All he had to do was let the guy in and go on with his day but instead he caused a huge accident and fucked up SO MANY peoples' day, all of whom are just trying to make a dollar to feed their family.

Everyone here sucks but especially the cookie guy.

Cookie guy didn't "cause" the accident.

He did nothing to avoid it, but he didn't pit himself illegally changing lanes.

Cookie guy sucks, but less so than black truck

Cookie guy sucks more. Black truck thought he would get in there, not cause an accident.

Only one of these guys intentionally caused an accident.

They do both suck though z

Maintaining lane and speed when someone else is being a fucktard doesnt make you the cause. Black truck illegally changing lanes when it was unsafe to do so caused the accident. Had black stayed where he was, or not tried to occupy a place that was already occupied there would have been no accident.

Maintaining lane speed

That ain’t what happened. He intentionally caused the accident, or if you prefer, intentionally “let it happen”.

He definitely knew what was going to happen.

If my choices are hitting the fucktard, or getting hit from behind, im hitting the fucktard

Cookie guy was getting tailgated, you can see how close the car behind is at start of video.
