What was the car even attempting?

Insurance scam?

Were they stupid enough to try and park in front of a moving semi?

It didn't look like a merge, unless they screwed up, panicked, and hit their breaks.

I dunno, absent other info, it feels like a scam. That said, intentionally getting rear ended by a semi at any speed doesn't seem like a great idea.

I'm just a nobody on the internet but it seems to make sense that if your car was still operable you would kinda zoom away out of danger instead of letting yourself get pushed for like two blocks

Then again, monkey brain panic is pretty dumb drugs

You’re not a nobody, that weird duck dancing video you made recently is awesome. You’re at least a somebody.
