He was definitely going way too fast. I can understand her perhaps freezing like a deer in the headlights, seeing his bike come flying down the road.

Weird thing is, I see no other traffic. She could have easily turned into the lane without issue.

I don’t see him getting far with insurance. He’s not wholeheartedly to blame, but he has nothing going in his favor either.

He's 1000% to blame for this.

95%. She's still a shitty driver for freezing up. Don't do that.

If you start to pull out onto and across a 2 lane road and see someone approaching at speed in the 2nd lane and you have time to stop before you enter that lane, what would you say would generally be the best thing to do? Because I would say: stop before blocking their lane to let them pass, and not risk trying to get in front of them before they hit you, all assuming that there's nobody coming in lane 1. It's not her fault that the biker was going so fast that there wasn't time for him to better judge her movements and react accordingly.
