Um. So they left a boat in the middle of the highway? :/

Yeah, but they chased the guy down to make sure he didn’t get charged. Don’t the police look at dash cam footage?

It would certainly appear they did, for a period.

Damn I was on that section of C470 not much more than an hour before this mess happened.

I am left wondering why there were no charges filed given the dash cam evidence. At the very least they could pursue it in civil court.

Interesting muting of the audio...wonder if the guy was saying how he wouldn’t let him merge in or something which would make the non-charges more sensible.
Don’t get in pissing matches on the road...also, don’t leave a boat on a 65 mph highway, sheesh.

Both drivers are acting like it’s the other guy who’s committing road rage. I’m going to lean towards siding with the camera-truck’s driver, especially after seeing how far the other driver was willing to escalate things.
But out of fairness, I’d want to take a closer look at the original merge (which is really hard to do with the other truck out-of-frame). Both drivers are on-track for a position conflict and right-of-way defaults to the one already on the freeway. (Note that both of them are handicapped by the extra weight and length of their trailers, and are thus probably expecting everybody else to make way.)
Now the camera-truck may have been just a little bit in the lead, so it feels natural that despite having the right-of-way, the other truck might want to slow down to let him in. The camera-truck assumes that this is the case, and accelerates to facilitate the merge.
But the other truck demands that the camera-truck yield, accelerating with intent that’s hard to gauge here. He’s either trying to defend his right-of-way, forcing the other driver to slow down, or he’s trying to facilitate the merge in his own way by getting ahead to open up space behind him.
This initial encounter is a messy situation, and it’s hard to pick sides until the other truck starts acting even more aggressively. That really puts him on the shit-list.

Stopping to retrieve the boat (if that’s even possible with their equipment; it looks pretty heavy) might not be a very safe thing to do here on the freeway. If it were me, I’d feel much better with a flatbed that had flashing lights...

All I could focus on was the terrible grammar in the captions. Sheesh.
