Now for the substance. That wouldn't have happened to me.. I could have been on the same street, with that same truck at that intersection, doing 25 mph, and the truck would not have pulled out in front of me. Why??? Because I got strong front blinky on doing the daytime, and strong front lights at night. If you had a strong blinky on the front, 98 out of 100, the truck would have stopped.
Not sure your definition of strong, but my blinking headlamp is a CREE XML LED, according to the data sheet it flashing on at about 550 lumens. Or this was the 2/100 you referenced. Oh, and yes this was during the day time.
