Instead he rides right into the middle of it. And then passes the driver who is obviously trying to change lanes to the left on the left and cuts him/her off. Besides that, who rides around with a video camera aiming out the front of their car? Besides cops. And if it were a cop why did he/she not flip on the lights and do something to stop the situation before it reached the level that it did? Staged.
