Was the Camaro impatient? Yeah, no doubt about that. But the pick up truck sped up so he couldn't get in and then deliberately blocked the Camaro's path for many miles.
In my opinion, I put the blame on the jerk driving the pick up. Why not just move over and let the guy go? The Camaro kept moving to the left, the universal signal that he wanted to pass, but the pick up truck guy was determined to intentionally mess with him. The trucker looks to be in on it too as he could have slowed down for 2 seconds and let the Camaro squeeze through. Really dumb.
Pick up in the left lane instigated this, but yeah, pretty stupid to pass on the lefy shoulder.
It appears to me the pickup truck speeds up when the Camaro goes to pass him on the left. Watch the video and the PU starts to pull forward of the Big Rig when the Camaro makes his move. It is possible the trucker finally had enough and was slowing down but more likely the PU driver was continuing his “lesson.”
Either way both drivers were engaging in dangerous behavior and should be ticketed for such. Camaro clown gets an extra award for being drunk but then at least he has an excuse for driving like a jerk.
If you watch the video again, you will see the tractor trailer does slow down. The pickup truck matches this slower speed, and after a short while, the tractor trailer speeds back up. I see absolutely nothing the tractor trailer could have done here: he was completely victimized by the two idiots.
Keep in mind, that truck driver is in a long line of trucks in the right lane. He has very limited ability to slow down as he would be stacking up all of the trucks running behind him. That is the reason he slowed only briefly: He's trying not to cause a massive traffic jam in back of him.
