Truck driver avoids road rage confrontation with a fake-out

A truck driver avoided a road rage confrontation with a confused four wheeler by faking him out in this short video. 

In the clip, a traffic cone rolls onto the narrow highway in front of a Subaru. The Subaru brakes for the cone, but the semi truck filming close behind him can’t stop, so the trucker swerves onto the right shoulder to avoid rear-ending the car and then continues on his way. 

Apparently, the Subaru driver interpreted the trucker’s evasive action as an aggressive move, and speeds up before shoving his way in front of the rig, motioning for the trucker to pull over. 

The trucker ignores the motorist at first, but eventually seems to concede, apparently agreeing to pull off at the next exit with the angry motorist. When the motorist takes the exit, the trucker starts to take the exit, but suddenly pulls back onto the highway, leaving the Subaru driver to rage by himself. 

Watch the fake-out below.
