The turnaround lane does not have a traffic light, only a yield sign. So, it is up to the driver to judge accordingly, provided they can see properly and the driver is paying close attention. I was in the middle lane and in order to catch the light before it turned red, I sped up and got in the far left lane. At that moment, I could see a large pickup truck waiting in the turnaround lane. As I crossed through the intersection, traveling at about 50 mph (80km/h), the truck driver hastily decided to go and at that moment my life flashed before my eyes. I knew it was too late to stop on such short notice due to the velocity of my car bee lining to catch the light and the fact that the driver of the truck was accelerating quickly, trying to cut me off at the last second. Sure enough, our vehicles collided. I ricocheted off his truck and this sent my car flying. I was driving a small compact vehicle and it was no match for his oversized truck. My car flipped and it landed upside down. This was a terrifying experience to say the least.
I held a huge grudge against the driver of the truck that hit my car for quite some time but then I realized, it was not his intention to hit me. Maybe he misjudged or was groggy or distracted.
