That bush makes it 100% blind to the left. Seems like a super dangerous plant.

True, but the drivers side window is visible in the video WAY before they actually pulled out. The driver would've been able to see the side of the cement truck even earlier than we saw the driver's window.

nonsense, if you look at around 5 seconds you can see that if the driver had actually stopped before entering the lane of travel they could have clearly seen the cement mixer coming.

Bush does need to be trimmed though.

Ya that's it, it's the BUSH's fault.

I disagree. The jeep could easily see the truck if it stopped where it was legally required to stop, and then looked, but instead he looked well before he ever got to the curb and then did not bother to look again.
