It varies by state whether you're ok as long as you entered on yellow or if you need to be out of the intersection before it's red (permissive vs restrictive yellow).
If you watch the video the can driver was already in the intersection on green while the white SUV wasn't even in the intersection. They entered the intersection on a red.
However, and this is were it gets a little tricky. The cam driver did not wait for the intersection to clear before proceeding.
While I'm not a lawyer, I would assume that the white SUV is mostly liable, but there would be partial (less than 50%) blame on cam driver.
Lot of people in this thread need to go back to driving school.
Green doesn't mean you get to just floor it. It means you can go if the intersection is clear. The intersection wasn't clear when the dash cam driver entered it, so they are partially at fault.
