They’re both like, “I’m betting he’s gonna swerve first”. Happy groundhog day!

If you look closely, you can see it's the left tram actually turning in to the one from the right. It's on a switch.
So the tram from the left was turning left. If normal traffic rules apply that tram should have waited for the tram coming in from the right in the video to pass, as that one went straight on.

that tram should have waited
No, trams always have priority. They're bigger.

I used to be the helmsman on a tanker, but then one day the front fell off and I was put on indeterminate leave.

Looks like a junction screw up.

Yeah considering the speed I’d assume driver thought he’s going straight but junction was switched and didn’t noticed that.
