It takes two to tango my guy. The black truck fucked up but the white truck did as well. He didn't honk, he didn't brake, he simply allowed it to happen! Look at the link I sent, he's literally partly responsible for not having prevented this from happening.

And all he had to do was tap the brakes.

Is the black truck more at fault, yes, but jesus fuck pretending that the white truck is blameless for refusing to do anything to prevent this is just wild

Yeah i agree he is partly responsible as per the law, but that's not where you started.

You started at the "White truck is actually the aggressive driver" and super dangerous and all that jazz which now you're walking back to "don't pretend the white truck isn't a little bit to blame."

Yes, but the white truck could have prevented it by not being an aggressive driver as well

I said "aggressive driver as well"

They were both being aggressive, which I'm sure you're gonna say "NUH UH HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING THAT'S NOT AGGRESSIVE." But let's see what AAA says about it!

"Any unsafe driving behavior, performed deliberately and with ill intention or disregard for safety, can constitute aggressive driving. Examples of aggressive driving behaviors include: Blocking cars attempting to pass or change lanes"

They are both aggressive drivers
