Scooter-guy was moving around (after tail-gating actually) a slow moving car.
The driver also was clearly braking as soon as scooter guy moved over AND came to a stop quickly. Watch, from the time scooter guy moves over to complete stop is less than two light poles. If the driver had been going at a "reckless speed", scooter guy would have been under his car before coming to a stop.
Scooter guy didn't signal, and cut off a car that had the right of way. The more I watched it, the more clear it was scooter guy at fault all the way.

I think it's a manual based on the shift sound.. so gear selection is on the driver.
driver did brake early and we'd have to know more about actual speeds and the braking system of the vehicle before we speculated that the scooter guy would've been under the car
