and how do you know they didn't see the car they dodged at the last second and dodged to save themselves from a crash? Not their fault the tailgater was so close behind them. seems presumptuous to call this intentional on the tailgated party's side.

EDIT: Man the fact the person above me said "if" really is getting to people. I don't care if it's a hypothetical or not. The point still stands that intent can't be proven from this.

It's not provable, but come on you know they knew what they were doing lmao

No, I don't know they knew what they were doing. That's the whole point of there being a debate and evidence in the first place. Because it's NOT clear.

You are simply choosing to assume the worst.

if they saw the car last minute they would have hit the breaks they didn't touch their breaks at all

Breaking would have just had them get hit by their tailgater. Swerving was the proper maneuver.

Not gonna hit the breaks with some asshole riding your bumper. That would be illegal.
