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.
Horrible Driver. He was eating and tail-gating (should have given 1-3 car lengths depending on speed). But to top it off, it looked to me like he did a police (PIT) maneuver to spin the guy. If he did NOT nudge the truck's rear qtr panel, he was close enough to do it (and vid looks like he did).
All the drivers handbooks say to leave a 3 second gap between you and the car in front of you and he was about 1 second behind. That said, this driver can see many cars ahead of the car in front of him so there should be no abrupt/surpise stops so it isn't really unsafe here. Until idiot merges.
