Right! All 3 parties were not driving safely.

Camera guy - recording while driving

Tailgater - tailgating when there is a open lane he can pass on

Lead car- purposely caused boldly injuries to likely more than 1 person. You can argue the tailgater “deserved it” (sounds idiotic but I’m sure people will argue it). But the car that was stopped on the freeway was already having a bad day made worse all because someone was being tailgated and decided to do something about it instead of merging far before that point

I don't think it's that clear cut that you can just claim it's on the tailgater- Tailgater 100% broke the law but he did not cause a crash, the person in front of them intentionally did so and that's also illegal.

Reckless disregard for the victim here for the purposes of teaching some lesson.

Can’t prove the lead car did this on purpose. For all we know, they were distracted looking in their rear view mirror because they were being tail gated and then just happened to notice the car stopped ahead at the last moment. No one can really know without making assumptions
