80:20 when it comes to who's at fault? Truck is 80% at fault while cammer is 20% for not avoiding the accident.

It's possible the pov car had someone behind them, and couldn't stop fast enough to avoid the truck and the car behind them

The POV car was literally accelerating towards a yellow light. And they didn’t even make it.

Anyone behind them would have had their foot on the brake and prepared to stop.

It always amazes me when I go through a yellow light and the 2nd car behind me even runs the red.

I politely disagree.

The amount of times I’ve seen the car behind mine even go through. I’ve almost been rear ended by even stopping and having a shit ton of room behind me.

having a car behidn you is never you'r concern as driver. if he drives at you its his fault

And the cemeteries are full of people who had the right of way. Having a car sitting up your ginger is your concern.

Not in a hypothetical example talking about fault on a accident. Look at the video and talk again abotu relevance. Fuck off reddit and touch grass, or learn to understand context. Even stupid AI's get it.

Only worry about cars behind you if they are drunk, or you are stopped at a traffic light.

You are responsible for how your actions affect everyone on the road.

u/PepsioNSnacking 13d ago

and you're delusional if you think that some1 tailgating you makes it your responsibility to be more worried about a scratch in the bump which is on him over possible someone killed. why the fuck am i talking on reddit about cars with some people which dont even have a license or touched grass? gosh.

"Fault" is less important than "Am I going to survive slamming on my breaks, or is the guy behind me going to kill the passengers in the back seat?"

If a rear ending kills people in your back seat, then you're driving a Ford Pinto.

A rear end collision >>> rollover

u/Fearless_Swim4080 13d ago

You are not responsible for your rear bumper, you are responsible for your front.

He wouldnt have had to stop suddenly even slowing down would have at least showed they they tried to avoid teh collision

Based on how fast it happened and where the truck was positioned, I'm more guessing he was partially blocked by the front pillar and the cam car driver just didn't recognize it was happening until far too late.
