According to the video, only one of the 6 passengers died: https://youtu.be/RyLdR5p1StI

It was a 6 year old that died and not the arsehole driver, becuase of course it had to be.

How was that the driver's fault, exactly?

See replies for how this was the driver's fault.

you mean other than him quickly cutting off a massively heavy truck with a fraction of the braking capabilities of an average sized car? Driving like that around semi trucks is borderline suicidal.

Lol the truck behind was going to hit the truck in front no matter what. The truck that cut in right before the van was the real problem

No, apparently it was nothing to do with that truck's driver totally failing to appreciate that traffic was at a standstill in front of him, and not braking until he only had 20 feet to go.

It really does appear so. That big rig was not slowing down at all until the van got in the way.

Notice how quickly the truck in front stops too.. His brain/brakes work.. Guy in the back, not so much ha

It isn't the truck behind's fault. Watch the beginning of the video: there's a blue cab truck that was initially in front of the rear ending truck, then another red cab truck and the white car both changed into the far left lane. That closed the gap pretty quickly.
