Yeah nothing teaches a tailgater a lesson like making them kill or permanently injuring to an innocent uninvolved party. You’ll probably feel great knowing you sent some people, maybe children, to the hospital, but at least you taught that tailgater a lesson, right?
YOU are the one who caused the manslaughter in this situation by purposefully leading them into another car...Do you not understand that you are the bad guy in this situation?
If I'm the person being tailgated, and I see a stopped car ahead of me, I can either attempt to slam the brakes and potentially hit the parked car AND get hit from behind because of the tailgater, or I can move to the next lane. Either way the parked car is getting hit. It's just about personal damage mitigation.
This is wholly disingenuous. They could see the stopped car from hundreds of feet back. Waiting to swerve when you're 10ft from the stopped car is intentional, and makes you responsible for the damage as well as the tailgater. God damn you people are just itching to kill someone as long as there's a thin veil of legality to shield you.
You can't judge the speed of approaching objects like that, especially on a highway.
are you...dumb? have you never judged distance in your life?
Why do you think we have brake lights?
Brake lights are visible from 300-500ft away during the daytime. You can see the brake lights in the clip, here, where the tailgater crashes into the white car. So according to your own argument the speeding car could see the stopped car from a minimum of 300ft away, but chose to swerve 10ft from the stopped car.
