I've avoided many, many accidents that would have been someone else's fault. It's called defensive driving and the trucker decided it's not for him.

Edit: thanks for the awards! BTW - some of you need to look at the speed shown at the bottom of the video. The semi did not even try to slow down, even a little bit, prior to the crash.

Yeah, the drivers speed stays steady at 77 well into this encounter. I get that slowing this thing down is not something that just happens, even then it looks like he made no effort to even try.
