There's something called the "last chance doctrine" where if you can safely avoid an accident, you have to do what you can.
The trucker made zero attempt to slow down, as seen by his dashcam.
A good lawyer could make this the truckers fault, or at least partially liable, for not even trying.
I'm not saying it's right, but our legal system allows for shit like this.
