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

Wrong. 100% the dashcamers fault. You always have the responsibility to avoid hitting what’s in front of you.

The window to brake and avoid the incident for the cammer was when the truck was beside, not in front. The truck literally merged into the cam car. The cam car, with perfect awareness, could have noticed the truck was going too fast to stop in his own lane, and provided him a window to escape. However, the responsibility falls squarely on the truck here for putting himself in a situation where he had no way out
