It's a campaign bus, not voters at a polling station. Drivers supporting another party are absolutely allowed to drive next to them.
- gus_massa 6y agoI don't know the local laws, but isn't there a minimal distance between cars in the runway? The truck was too close to the bus.
- mc32 6y agoTailgating is a thing, but so is not merging when unsafe to merge as well as splitting lanes is a thing you should not do (motorcycles excepted in some states).
- wilde 6y agoTexas law is quite open to interpretation. Reckless driving is defined as "a person commits an offense if the person drives a vehicle in wilful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property." [1] Driving at that distance is wanton disregard for the safety of the persons in the bus, but that's open to interpretation of the officer at the scene.

The driver's intent is quite clear. Intimidating people because you disagree with them is unacceptable behavior. In this case, I suspect it's also illegal.
