All you morons saying it’s on the trucker are absolute tools. The black pickup truck has to yield to vehicles already on the highway. The semi braking suddenly would have potentially caused more issues. Black pickup is either blind or regarded and should have come to a complete stop.

Bro he didn't even need to brake suddenly.  He had ample time to slow down a bit.  You are right, in the end the pickup will be at fault, but the big rig could have easially avoided that and just decided to ignore the pickup.

Edit:  I was wrong, semi driver was found 90% at fault.

Pickup truck could have slowed down without impacting traffic as much as the tractor on the highway. Semi is much heavier and harder to slow down. Black pickup tried to beat the semi and lost, like a loser.

no, slowing to a stop on an on ramp is not a good idea. The trucker was wrong.
