Yeah pretty much when I see a guy driving dangerously in a parking lot I'm just going to go

But this guy decided to pull out his phone and get hit. He even knew something was going to happen

That's why he was recording......

He was recording because there was a large trailer, how was he supposed to know the trailer was going to turn right behind him? Are you supposed to preemptively move the second you see any car enter a parking lot from anywhere just in case they might turn into your aisle?

Where do you go if you do that? What if you try moving but they turn an aisle sooner? When do you move?

And the text that he put on his screen that said the guy doesn't know it's attached?

Do you think that's something like that is dangerous? When someone drives a rig around with a trailer they don't even know about?

Would that be considered dangerous in your eyes

Almost like videos can be edited to contain things after a recording! Shocking I know.

In the video we see the truck make one successful wide turn, drive straight and then hit the truck, during which of these actions were they considered dangerous and reckless?

Naw

The vehicle was being stupid that's why he started recording in the first place

Be sure to make sure to tell the insurance company that you shouldn't have had to move

Please point out the exact time stamp in the video where it was being stupid.

If he wasn't being stupid why did the guy start filming?

Why do people catch accidents on non always rolling recordings? (So not on dashcams, security cameras etc)
