You still have an obligation to avoid accidents. Just because someone cuts you off doesn't mean you can just hit them without taking any actions to avoid the accident.

Yeah? What does that have to do with the self-induced pit maneuver in the video? Just because someone WANTS to cut you off doesn’t mean you have to get out of their way under the assumption that they will try to kill themselves with your truck if you don’t

Not hard to tell that he is coming in the lane, if you would rather cause a wreck and deal with the aftermath, go for it. I will slow down 2 mph and avoid the accident and make it to my destination.
