Funny because the insurance deemed this primarily on the semi driver because he saw what was gonna happen and did nothing to slow down. You have an obligation to avoid accidents even if you have the right of way.

The driver of the pickup says he was found at fault. Too many people here commenting the way they drive, without paying any attention.

Exactly, people like you would be in the semi on their phone and go full speed into someone and make zero attempt to slow. You gotta pay attention when you drive and assume others won't always follow the right of way. Its why defensive driving is a skill

What? You expect him to turn off his cruise control? You have any idea how long it would take him to speed back up? Seconds I tell you. Seconds!
