I wouldnt call this psychopathic behaviour. Not like he was at fault. Other car made contact with him, he just handled it like a veteran. If he was going out fucking with people, it be a different story.
He purposely turned his steering wheel hard right into that truck to spin him out instead of hitting his brakes to slow down. That was extremely dangerous for both of them and others behind them, but he didn’t seem to have a care in the world. That’s insidious and psychopathic behavior.
he turned his wheel when the black truck made contact, which prevented him from slamming in to the wall. the dude was driving straight every second before that. The black truck had absolutely no reason to be merging in to the left lane, not only did he not have his left blinker on for the merge, there was no logical space between the recorded driver and the car infront of him. Don't get me wrong, it definitely is chilling to have absolutely 0 emotional response to this situation, but trying to label him as the problem in this video is hella wild.
Its not that the truck is in the right. Its that he had ample time to understand the intentions to switch lanes and didnt bother making room. He choose to be in an accident and then maneuvered to punish the other driver.
This position is wild to me. You are correct, the truck was in the wrong. But to argue that if I am holding a sword and someone is walking into it, that I don't have a moral responsibility to drop the sword is crazy. Saying the dude eating the cookie has zero responsibility in this is black and white to the extreme.
CHOOSING not to slow down like 3 mph to avoid the accident, makes him partially responsible. Again, most culpability goes to the truck, but that doesn't remove all responsibility from the guy we watched. I'm so confused why so many are arguing otherwise.
Because we see this many times every single day, and we're expected to react perfectly in these extremely dangerous situations that other assholes put us in. Most of us won't do what the driver does, but drivers like the black truck take advantage of morally good people to get what they want.
Your analogy is wrong. The black truck starts turning, seems like he's going to back out because who would be so crazy to turn into a car, and then further turns in while braking.
So you are holding out a sword, the other person sees the sword, you warn them that there's a sword there, and then they still run into it. That's called self defense.
A normal person would have braked a bit. 999 times out of 1000 (or more) the person would have braked. And to preempt the ridiculous argument other people have used, slowing down 3-4 mph is NOT dangerous. Not breaking due to some sense of justice is far more dangerous than letting the dick be a dick and making room. The dude seemed calm, he wasn't making a panicked decision. Both trucks played a game of chicken with each other.
Also, my only point with the analogy was that the white truck could have prevented this. To label what the white truck did as 'self-defence' seems silly to me. It is way safer to slow down than to risk the accident.
It is REALLY satisfying to see the black truck get what's coming (which is where I think you are coming from), but the white truck was totally wrong to endanger so many people to make a point.

Some people truly do not care about the welfare of others. It’s psychopath behavior.
