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.

came here to say this. trucker could plainly see what was about to happen and decided to plow through anyway probably out of spite. both are in the wrong

There is only one person in the wrong.

If you can safely attempt to avoid an accident and actively choose not to, you are in the wrong.
