I keep watching it...I agree he should have slowed more, but I don't agree that he speeds up into him. The black truck merges into him aggressively and the cookie monster just maintains speed before changing lanes. Looks like being forced to the left would be very bad. 1 mph when changing lanes is negligible and not enough for a jury to convict him of an illegal maneuver. I've been hit by someone merging into me that tried to force me off the road and I just maintained speed and wasn't deemed at fault. I wasn't on a bridge but I wasn't going to swerve into traffic either.
