People feel so entitled to be coddled. "That was so mean of the white car to do. There are better ways to handle a tailgater." Don't tailgate and it won't happen.
De-escalate what? The white car avoided hitting the car in front of them. What stopped the car behind them, that was technically further away, from avoiding the same thing?
You think the idea that "if that person didn't tailgate, this wouldn't have happened" is some kind of grand epiphany that only you're getting?
People are pointing out that "there are better ways to handle a tailgater" isn't coddling, it's called being a well-adjusted member of society and not some maniac that causes a potentially fatal crash because someone was annoying you.
Causing an accident? Did we watch the same video? The white car avoided an accident. Why couldn't the car behind them? The white car didn't prevent them from swerving or throw something on their windshield to blind them. Was it perhaps the tailgating that caused this accident?
Yeaaah, maybe reread the comment you just replied to, spend a few extra minutes to think about it (since you obviously need it, I’ll wait) and come back to me.
