I actually had something similar happen yesterday. I was about take take a right on red on intersection. There was a car coming from my left, but he was in right turn only lane, so I assumed he was gonna turn into my street and therefore I started making the turn. Well, the fella decided to go through and barely stopped in time to avoid hitting me. After exchanging our warm regards for one another we went our own ways, however, had there been an accident I probably would've been at fault, even though unofficially it's completely his fault.
The reason though - the rule states when not having the right of way it's your obligation not to cause an accident. Even if another person is breaking the law.

OK I'm pretty sure some of the figures were made up in that lengthy math post. Do you have a source for it? 500 feet is an awfully large number. I am willing to wager it also depends on the city and/or state even if it is 500 feet. 500 feet would be like in kansas where they only have 2 hills.
Pics of roadway so we can judge just how far "100 Yards" is, and whether this blind hill is dangerously close to the intersection?
Besed on the original post description it sounds like you turned into the oncoming traffic lane, then stopped there when you saw her coming.
Otherwise I don't understand how you could get hit in the right front corner..if you were moving and got hit there you would have to start into the intersection when you she was almost already on top of you, not 100 yards away.

what probably happened is the girl was on the other side of the oncoming cars turning left, and dude didn't see it.
that's what I was thinking when he added "other cars turning left"
Meaning he doesn't know how to drive. number 1 rule - don't put your car in the path of other cars if you can't see the path of other cars.
now why did I see that coming?
Face it. You failed to yield right of way, couldn't see the other car, pulled out in front of it and are totally at fault.
Next time you'll know.
Holy crap, that car got pounded. No stop sign for the pickup either - WTF was that dumbass thinking?

im thinking since he saw the conversion van go through he neglected to see the truck to his left, and thought it was clear to go through. needless to say, i bet that intersection now has a 4 way stop sign.
You'd like to think that people crossing a 55mph highway would, y'know, look first, but some people are just stupid and can't drive. At least the pickup driver wasn't injured.

looking at the video more closely reveals he is looking to his right while he is crossing the intersection, so i think he looked left first and musta had a moment of blindensss.
For those of you say that speed doesn't matter, don't you remeber that guy who got charged with vehicular homicide, after speeding and hitting a car coming out it's driveway, killing both occupants?
It wouldn't matter because you did fail to give right of way. It sucks when your fault but in this case, it really is.
Not really.
The most that could really happen is that the other driver would be cited for speeding. It doesn't matter if the other person is driving backwords, drunk, speeding, doing 10MPH or doing a series of dounuts down the street, as long as there is traffic moving in the opposite direction, they have the right of way.
Yes it sucks, but any citation is pretty much worth challenging in court. Even my uncle, a police officer says so. I mean, if you get a speeding ticket, you can tell the officer that you will plead guilty if they change the citation to something like disordly conduct. Doesn't mean they will always go for it, but if you can get them to, it's better than having points on your license.
In the case of a wreck it is a bit different because you can't have the charges changed, but it's worth the couple hundred to spend on a lawyer if you can possibly get out of paying an extra grand in insurance for the next few years.
Hell any bad lawer could make the same arguement. However that does not change the fact that regardless of her speed he failed to yield.
This is hilarious.
You think waiting two FULL seconds gives you privileges? It may have been clear on those 2 seconds but obviously on the 3rd second, it was not ok to go.
Even if she wasn't speeding, you think she would have stopped for you? She was going straight! She has the right of way, nuff said.
It sounds like a tough situation with the hill and all and a speeding driver on the other end, but it's your fault. Come to grips with that.
