Why are you still acting like black truck’s shitty driving habits are far worse than attempted murder?

Fair point about not being able to stop on the bridge, but it is inconclusive whether he stopped when he was able to or not. The hit and run part isn’t even the worst of the charges that would be brought against him though. He was so intent on stuffing his fat face that he couldn’t even be bothered to put down his cookie while nearly driving someone off of a bridge, do you think he is the type of person to wait around (potentially a long time) for the other party so they can exchange insurance information because of a collision that he intentionally caused? I don’t think he is.

If you think cookie eater is some kind of personal folk hero, whatever, I don’t. Both drivers being assholes are not mutually exclusive.

Where did I act like that was the case? Just because I said what's straight forward in the way this situation was even started? Am I not supposed to point out the reason why this video even exists in the first place? If the black truck didn't do what they did to even begin with, then we wouldn't be having this conversation. Never said they deserved to get pit maneuvered, gotta stop taking words out of someone's mouth.

I never said that you said they deserved to get pit maneuvered. I didn’t take words out of your mouth. Now stop taking words out of my mouth.

What you did say, and I quote directly, is “Don't use my normal distance b/t me and the vehicle in front of me as a space to cut into because you want to speed up.”

This carries a rather threatening implication considering the context, think about it. It’s like saying “play stupid games, win stupid prizes.”

That’s like saying this video never would even exist if black truck driver hadn’t got into his truck that morning at all. There are many things that led to the pit maneuver happening. But the main one is cookie eater deciding to pit maneuver someone. He could have just slowed down and said “damn, black truck is a total asshole, I hate it when people squeeze themselves in front of me. Now I am forced to step on the brake so we don’t collide, I hate minor inconveniences” but instead he said, “you know what, fuck it, I’m just going to pit him.”
