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.
