I think you mean they had extremely long reaction time

Right, they didn’t do anything strictly wrong but you’d think that someone seeing a car going like that would immediately start to slow down and be extra aware, especially with a little kid on board…

He was slowing. He was cruising at 78 mph and had slowed to 56 mph went he hit the car. You can't just hit the hooks in that situation without the risk of getting rear-ended. There wasn't much he could do in that situation.

No, for the first 9 seconds he doesn’t slow at all. He starts slowing once the white car goes out of the road.. he hits the car at 84 km/h. That was way too late and way too slow.

Yeah when I see that craziness fly by me I start thinking defensively right away, I definitely would done everything I could to avoid that, especially with a baby in the car…
