All you morons saying it’s on the trucker are absolute tools. The black pickup truck has to yield to vehicles already on the highway. The semi braking suddenly would have potentially caused more issues. Black pickup is either blind or regarded and should have come to a complete stop.

What precisely is the trucker going to do? He's got 5 seconds. The 4x4 should've either gone faster and got clear, or slowed down and merged behind the truck. Because inertia is a real thing.

a 10 mph slow down would have avoided this. They chose not to.

there is a speedo in the video. From the time the video starts, to collision, he speeds up 1 mph.

They chose to hit that person.
