He crashed into a tree and blamed a garbage truck driver for the accident, claiming the driver cut him off, but video from the truck driver's dashcam shows the truck driver making a legal turn.

The footage begins with the truck exiting a parking lot and making a routine right turn. Roughly 30 seconds in, Alec Baldwin's vehicle appears to attempt to pass the truck on the right, before veering onto the shoulder and striking a large tree head-on. The video then captures the aftermath, including the Range Rover's crumpled front end.
In a video posted to Instagram late Monday, Alec Baldwin claimed a "garbage truck the size of a whale" cut him off, forcing him to swerve to avoid a collision.
"To avoid hitting him, I hit a tree. I hit a big fat tree and crushed my car — my wife's car," he said.
But the dashcam footage obtained by Newsmax tells a different story. The truck Alec Baldwin blamed for "cutting him off" does not appear to impede his path. Instead, the footage shows Alec Baldwin's vehicle attempting to maneuver around the truck after it had already completed its turn.
There is no visible indication that the truck forced Alec Baldwin from his lane, nor any sudden obstruction requiring evasive action. Seconds later, his SUV loses control and crashes into the tree.
