They were apparently traveling eastbound on 17th and failed to negotiate the left turn onto 12th. There is no scenario under which they should have made that turn without stopping, since the intersection is open north/south and there are no active traffic lights for eastbound traffic (last time I made that turn, at least, the lights were covered up). It seems far more likely they were distracted/speeding and didn’t realize there is a giant hole in 17th ave after 12th st and had to swerve left to avoid ramming into the construction. Either way, absent some medical issue, this has the appearance of criminally negligent driving.
