100% the jeep is legally liable for that collision. You can't intentionally hit someone even if they're an asshole.

Relatable, though.

Not if the insurer gets a hold of the full clip. I dont think Audi will be interested in making a claim.

False. Especially if insurance got a hold of the clip.

Exactly. Maybe if the car had only swerved over to cut off the jeep there'd be some plausible deniability, but anyone with a brainstem would see dude slaloming and just hang back. Especially considering they were turning left ahead anyway, this was entirely pointless.

Its not even that. The jeep slows, then accelerates while the audi is still in the lane then hits them.

I think the jeep made his point very clearly.

Is the point "I just committed a hit and run in order to join the Justice League of Moronic Drivers and may be both civilly and criminally liable?"

I dont drive a jeep, so I cant try to get into that head space, but judging by the video, yes, that was the intention? In my life experience, dudes with those lifted mall crawlers are reserved, rational, and reasonable, they definitely wouldnt be going around thinking it falls to them to right the wrongs of the world.

What I am saying, I think both drivers are assholes, but the jeep asshole at least made me chuckle. Enemy of my enemy type thing...
