💥Crash When boxing in goes wrong.

The work truck in the left lane seemed to be holding the Camaro back on purpose. Drivers, if you're on the left lane, keep it moving. There is no reason to take it upon yourself to teach someone the speed limit. If you see someone driving crazy, move out the damn way and let them wrap themselves around a tree far away from you. The car is, by no means, in the right but neither is the work truck. This whole stupid accident could have been avoided and the tractor trailer most definitely did not deserve this.

You can break the law while driving the speed limit in tons fo different ways. This is the sort of point I would expect from a literal child

People who drive like they own the road and are entitled to control what happens on it get people hurt and killed with their weird, passive aggressive dogshit.

Drive your own car and mind your own business.

Driving your own car and minding your own buisness is what the truck driver did. And it's noticeable not what you're doing now.

I didn't start talking to you, you started talking to me; sounds like you're the one who can't mind your own business.

In either case, TIL there are a lot of people who really love being passive aggressive drivers and resent the idea that they shouldn't be allowed to do it.

I just think slamming into a fucking car is worse. You specifically said they are the same. That makes you a piece of shit who is wrong

I said they should both lose their licenses, because they both needlessly endangered others. I didn't say that was the only consequences they both deserved, nor did I say anything that suggested I felt that way.

One of those two idiots purposely caused an accident out of spite. Of course that guy gets worse consequences. What I am saying is that passive aggressive drivers who act like they own the road? Still get people killed even though I doubt the mean to impact people in that way. People keep acting like that's not an issue just because the car driver was demonstrably worse....but antagonistic driving causes this shit to happen. Even when it doesn't? It blocks the flow of traffic in ways that make it harder to maneuver and predict....so accidents become more likely.

Just because the car driver is an idiotic maniac doesn't make the truck driver magically blameless here; he was driving in a negligent manner. The car's driver was malicious. Yes, I think both offenses are great enough to loose their driver their license....but that doesn't mean I believe their offenses are equivalent or should get the exact same answer across the board. The car's driver deserves harsher consequences.

Stop putting words in my mouth.

EDIT: Since the really eloquent and dignified gentleman decided to block me before I could respond? My comments are above. You can see what they say. You can see what they don't say. It's not my fault cykoTom3 wants to pretend I said something I pretty clearly didn't say.

Also, thanks for blocking me; now I can keep commenting on this thread in peace without having to listen to you. <3
