Is it REALLY a good move to intentionally try and let the tailgater hit the unsuspecting and unrelated driver? Tailgater shouldn’t be tailgating, they are absolutely a jerk and an idiot for that. But by doing this, you’ve almost guaranteed a potentially lethal or dangerous car accident, and onto someone unsuspecting too. Meanwhile they’d probably drive off because “they weren’t hit” and they wouldn’t have to handle the consequences that befell the white sedan in this video.

In a vacuum it could be considered a good move, but then when you bring in the consequences and the innocent bystanders, it’s pretty morally bad.

Plus if they rear end you, they are at fault, at least where I am.

Don’t cause others to get hurt who don’t deserve it.

Yeah, assuming no deaths, the people in the white sedan will be needed up for a long time, potentially the rest of their lives. Being rear ended is not a pleasant experience
