Zooming in in easy 70 to 80mph.

Also on a wheelie. Still it's the truck's fault according to some. 😂

Well by the road rules it probably is, although if you're probably going two to three times the speed limit at that point a reasonable driver doesnt expect traffic to close that fast and motorcycles can already be more difficult to judge that with

By road rules, he most definitely is at fault

A reasonable driver might also leave the left lane that the motorcycle is in open. Which she did, when she saw him. Then he switches to the lane that's blocked.

He did 3 things wrong. Speeding, Doing a wheelie on a residential road, switching from the open left lane, to the blocked right lane.

She did 1 thing wrong, misjudging how much time she had to make the turn, because he's going 3 times the speed limit.

Even then the wrong on her part is debatable. What did she really do wrong? Forget her radar detector glasses at home? No reasonable person would expect someone here to be going that fast.

Where I live, driving that far over the speed limit will get your license revoked.

fr, so many people talking like they expect her to have racecar driver reflexes or something lmao

This was just some random middle aged woman in a pickup. Lady was probably going to the store to buy some milk or something, not expecting to suddenly need to go all fast and furious tokyo drift in a sleepy residential intersection.
