Self defense ......or not?

I've thought of this before. Both drivers escalated the situation and this was not a situation of self-defense. He should have just stopped his car instead of continuing on with the pissing contest. They both acted extremely dangerously. I think the dump truck driver should have more serious charges.

+1 The guy is driving a dump truck and crashed into the car at least twice. Dump truck vs car - hmmm. By my math the dump truck driver definitely had the ability to KILL both occupants of the car. He should definitely be facing more serious charges

Well,, Not knowing how "bad" rush hour was, I'll say this.. If driving a Jag and you can't put one hell of piece of real estate between yourself and a dump truck, Chances are, you are looking for something to escalate..

You don't even have to run away either. It's hard to ram another car in rush hour if they stopped and pulled over behind you.
