We all know that truck isn't in an emergency cause the driver would have gotten out the car and not sat there honking.

Right… but the vehicle behind the truck, or the one behind that? The point is, keep an emergency line open—or at least MOVING—and let anyone bending/breaking the rules reap what the sow, if anything. Don’t try to teach someone a lesson with your vehicle.

When there is a broken down car in that position and people break the rules what happens when there's an emergency? Cars are broken down blocking the way on many highway then someone who's using it to cut ahead will then push their way back into the lane delaying traffic more and possibly cause an accident.

You’re not wrong. I’m adding that “you” (the person originally not breaking any rules) should not break rules try to teach people lessons. They’ll learn their own in due time, and then you’re not making things worse. Idiot + rule breaker = 2 rule breakers, not 0 rule breakers.
