Let's watch some trucks turning right.

Two videos have been brought to my attention - there is no death or injury - but they do perhaps comically and violently point out the fault in the idea that people could "just move out of the way" if a truck starts turning right in front of them.

Also note neither driver sticks around after destroying property, even the guy who seems to have stopped because he knows he's just smashed a ton of stuff.

You can see that if you were on the sidewalk, you have little time decide to run around the corner, jump the fence, or what. Forget about saving your bike too if you're on one. Either way you can count on the trucker not stopping.
