Both the truck's left turn lane and the opposing left turn lane appear to have a green left turn signal, as the video shows such.

The car is at 100% fault, unless they voted for depends joe, which gets you a free pass on all things.

I knew it was only a matter of time. Morgan & Morgan reached out for permission to re-post my video. I've had nearly 3,600 views so far. Would be fun to see this go viral.

There is something curious about the video. After the accident, the arrow is still clearly green, but note the speed of the approaching white truck. Almost as if he too has green, but slows only because of the cars in the way.

Our light is fully functional. That white truck was the "other" witness saying that this happens all of the time in this intersection. The reality is the fact that there were no other cars coming from East-to-West on this road is a rarity, and I believe them to have not been focused. That same white truck is in the picture I took from the '09Z.

That bozo was in my turning lane blocking my ability to get into my neighborhood. Eventually they moved.

I need to dig up the dash cam video from the '09 as well, because I'd be able to clearly show that the East-to-West drivers had a red light...assuming I was close enough. In Patty's longer video, it took the cop about 45 seconds to pull into the intersection. That would have been pretty far away from my car's perspective.

Say yes I guess, so we don't have to pay you. I don't care about getting paid. I granted rights to 3 others before the attorney's social media person made the request. Not like I can say yes to the other 3 and then "pay me" to the attorney. I make a good living, I don't need trivial income pursuits.

Shit, just reviewed the card in the '09Z. Looks like the looping overwrite feature kicked in "JUST" before. I have some videos on the 29th coming in the main drag, but this was after making that right hand turn. Guess I need a bigger card, and should have also thought to review my footage on the same day as well.

Was he approaching that fast just to help and to be a witness?

I watched it again, and the white truck slowed down pretty quickly. That stretch of road is 50 mph, but they backed off at least 100 yards early. Zero chance of a light malfunction that had two greens at the same time. Christ, the equipment is brand new after Hurricane Ian. And the pattern changes nearly daily regarding who gets to go.
