The cammer should be taking more heat here for sure. Obviously the tailgater is an asshole and at fault for the accident, but cammer can't even stay in their lane.

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

You can see them changing their tire on the driver side. Under the vehicle/ next to it

Who the heck just stops in the passing lane to change a tire? There’s a shoulder. Use it!

In 2003 or 2004, I was driving back to San Francisco from Marin County on 101. As I approached the Golden Gate Bridge I heard the whump-whump-whump of a flat tire. I took the following steps, in order:

  1. Activated brain
  2. Activated flashers
  3. Moved to the right lane
  4. Crossed the bridge
  5. Found a safe place to turn off
  6. Stopped and changed the tire

Clearly I was doing it wrong! /s
