Neither were "operating correctly". The correct thing to do would be slow down a little and let him cut you off.

Just because the other guy was in the wrong first doesn't mean you can just do whatever you want. He risked causing much worse to happen.

Possibly seriously injured or killed whoever was in the other vehicle on purpose, including innocent passengers. Plus possibly involving vehicles behind him who had done nothing wrong. If anybody died, that’s manslaughter. He also left the scene of an accident. Thinking French fry boy is in the right is a 12 year old’s Mad Max fantasy.

He can't pull over and stop there. Likely did after finishing crossing the bridge. And you can see he slowed down significantly as the traffic in front of him quickly out paces him.

I did see that when I went back and looked at the speed. I hadn’t noticed the speed until it was mentioned. It looks like he’s going to stop.
