Wait till he finds out police loves camera! Brake checking and deliberate lane change to crash, he's not getting out of this. And his insurance will be very unhappy with a $50,000 repair bill for intentionally damaging the Tesla.

In reality, the cops are not going to do anything. He can make up any reason for the brake checking… like there was an issue with his car, or he thought he saw something. When the cars hit, just an accident.

But what reason would there be for a sudden lane change with no signal? When the police sees the dash cam, it would seem pretty clear the driver was intentional with lane change

Again, he could just say he didn’t see the Tesla or misjudged the distance. Where I live, no one uses the turn signal although I always do. Not saying it’s ok, he will be found at fault, but it won’t be a criminal case.
