Having a light that's off and slightly blinding one mirror on the person in front is no where near as bad as blocking two lanes and blinding 10 other cars behind you. The trucker is by far the larger asshole, and way more dangerous on the road, in all of this.
Again, not the point. Trucker being an asshole has no bearing on the idea that OP could have done more on their end.
The point making is, that the trucker is making a slightly annoying situation caused by a misaligned light, incredibly dangerous with his behavior.
Driving with a misaligned light is a nuisance, but not inherently dangerous. Of course should still be fixed, it's not OK. Blocking multiple lanes and deliberately turning on highly blinding spotlight on several cars behind you is fucking insane behavior and incredibly dangerous. His reaction is completely disproportionate and ahould be punished much more severely, the trucker clearly has road rage issues acting like that.
