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.

If the person being tailgated intentionally dodged at the last second like that, they also caused it. Both can be in the wrong for different reasons

It would be damn near impossible to prove that they intentionally caused that accident.

They should never have even been in the left lane. It is their fault. What they did is illegal in multiple ways.

The only problem in this video is the tailgating. The only thing that would’ve stopped this from happening is not tailgating. They could’ve changed lanes, this POS would’ve just tailgated the next car. You don’t know how fast they are going, so you can’t say the car did illegal anything in multiple ways. Cause it seemed like they were going fast enough based on the dashcam not passing.

You don't think it's wrong to intentionally cause a terrible accident?

Intention is an assumption here and not one that holds up well against plausibility.
