The entitlement of these assholes is even worse than the people they are trying to teach a lesson. Together, they make a perfect storm of endangering traffic for everyone else.

I used to try once to break with left leg!!!!
OMG it was like emergency brake, don't try that!

i'm not even involved in that accident and it makes my blood boil. Perhaps the dash cam footage will change the legal outcome, but legally, its generally the rear car thats charged.. Physically, the people in the front car would be paying if I were in either of the other 2 (or more) vehicles. Stupid ass needs his license suspended indefinitely.

And sadly, doctor's can't cure stupidity so far.

Would have loved to have seen the look on the jerk's face when he realized what his idiocy had caused. Or maybe he has no conscience.

another 80 year old that missed his turn

Oooohhh,baby, you're the one

He's not brake checking, it's a "crash for cash" scam - and the with the camera is not at fault because he managed to stop in time.

It'll all come out of the insurance of the vehicle we DON'T see - as it's him that failed to stop in time.

It must have been a heavy vehicle that plowed into the truck with the dash cam to move it forward with such force. I hope they dragged that a-hole out of the car and beat his ass.

#9 thanks for this link

Driver of the cam vehicle was John Adams:

"I was the driver of the van, the Peugeot driver was arguing on the phone with his wife. His 8 yr old daughter was in the front too.he stopped, i stopped, the Audi behind me stopped, but the 40 ton articulated truck didnt... The Peugeot driver lost his license, got a 16 jail term and must retake his test. I got severe whiplash, broken ribs, fractured skull and a stroke 3 months later. The footage is from a road angel dash mounted camera"

nice to get the full story including the outcome for a change, sorry that you paid the price for the dickheads at the front and rear

Maybe if EVERYONE simply left enough stopping room, No one would ever be in these crashes.

You should always have enough room to stop EVEN if the car in front of you does slam on the brakes.

Know your car, know your stopping distance and don't be an a-hole.

#13, at least in my country, if leave enough space, other car will fit in.
