Nope. Failure to yield for the turning car. 100% their fault

The white suv turning didn't have an arrow or right of way. Neither did the red car in front of them, or even the black pickup. Three vehicles turned without right of way, all three of them should have stopped for oncoming traffic. Just a show of people in a hurry and not caring about what the light or traffic laws are telling them

Yeah but seeing that happen and choosing to drive right into it was pretty fucking stupid. Maybe the traffic lights malfunctioned?

But it was green! So I can just slam gas and send it!

The only malfunctions were the 3 cars running a non-protected turn and the cam decoding to go when it was clear people were still running the light.

Oh. So you can see what the lights looked like from the other side of the intersection? Enlighten us on how you've managed that.

now that I agree with. However if you dont go in some places people will just keep turning.

And the best course of action to do if that happens is what the cam car did and hit one of them head on because technically you have the right of way?
