Not defending either driver, just responding to the comment about being able to pull over.
There are a few two-lane highways in Arizona where it is dangerous to pull off the road at any speed, and these roads rarely have emergency lanes. I once had to drag a short trailer with a blowout about a mile down 93 before I could find a place to pull off. People coming back from Vegas were piling up behind me, but I had no choice. Totally destroyed the tire in the process. If you've been on this road, you know what I'm talking about.
Judging from the video, there was no emergency lane, and the edges were very sandy. I would not pull my 25 foot toyhauler off into this for any reason. Okay, well maybe...
