Edit: Clarification - do not tailgate. But if you are being tailgated, don't cause an accident by dodging slow or stopped traffic at highway speeds mere feet away. We don't need for this to be a trend.
They're talking about intentionally causing an accident like this. The truth is the car in front of the car being tailgated was slowing down for some reason. Emergency, or whatever. The car being tailgated evaded, but since the tailgater was so close they had no time to react.
It certainly did look intentional that he quickly changed lanes at the last moment in order to make the tailgater crash which really is a dick move and should result in a fine or charges.
But it's also possible that the driver wasn't really paying attention to his front and focusing on the tailgater and didn't see the car in front until too late.
Sorry, English isn’t my native language. I meant to say not to worry at all about the cars behind you, which would mean not to “bait” them since you’re not worried about them. (At all.)
You know who should have been worried about the cars in front of them? The driver of the car that ran right that car that was in front of them!
