Yes, theoretically he has the right of way so he should be able to travel at infinite speed; but meanwhile in the real world, he's dead because he thinks like you.

Not sure where I said it was ok to ride like he did. Clearly the court system sees things the way I do. This situation is really no different than if you get t-boned turning left by a car running a red. It's still your fault because you made an unsafe left turn. All I said was regardless of speed its the person turning left's responsibility to yield to oncoming traffic.
Both parties should have been charged if the guy survived. He was clearly driving dangerously, but his actions weren't the sole cause of the collision. Which is kinda the moral of the story, everyone should be a little more careful, both the rider and the drivers around them.
