Think the van driver wasnt paying attention and you could see the car trying to get round something was bound to happen it was the guy in the cars fault.

The truck had a green light. The van driver should have waited.

The van could have had a left turn arrow. Besiodes, the truck was being chased by police.

the van clearly did it on purpose. He sped up and NAILED the truck. No one would try to beat a speeding car.

A green light for one direction (the truck) and a left turn arrow for the opposite direction (the van) doesn't happen at the same time. The driver of the minivan was oblivious of their surroundings. She failed to yield to oncoming traffic and is partially responsible for the resulting accident in my opinion.

You're right, the truck had a green light. The opnly defense the van would have is if the guy driving the truck was speeding (which is likely in a police chase).

More than likely the minivan driver did see the truck, just wasn't expecting it to be going that fast.

The van could have had a left turn arrow. Besiodes, the truck was being chased by police.

If the van had a left turn arrow, the light visible to us would be red. Besides, you can clearly see a "Left turn YIELD on green" sign hanging in the vans lane.

Was the vans fault.
