The truck driver probably DID see the guy, but oncoming speed is impossible to judge at a glance, and the rider was the proper distance away to allow time for a turn... had he not been doing 160kph or so.

Not a bad way to go, I'm sure he didn't feel a thing.

 

Son of a b****.

 

Check the sun glare on the truck's windshield as he makes his turn. Could have played a part.

 

I agree, but that dude was moving pretty good. Everytime I come up on a vehicle in the turn lane I will slow down just to make sure.

 

Painful to watch
