    Actually I think the 'cammer got out and headed for the guy that did the hitting. You can see the camera shake a couple times when he is slamming the door. The guy that got hit was probably looking for some clean undies or prying the seat out of his butt before he got out. Since be only went for a spin, he stood a better chance of escaping injury.

    My first impression was the driver in the turning lane probably waved on the driver who pulled out. Looking at the map makes me nearly sure. I guess he pulled out thinking the driver was telling him to go and he either didnt look or thought the downhill truck was going to turn, No question driver who pulled out was 100% at fault.

    I don't think the driver waiting to turn waved him on. Specially since he says WTF.

    None of us will ever know what the heck that guy was thinking.
