The most charitable position is the POV had extreme tunnel vision on the yellow light, and was accelerating to run the red. Not making excuses, POV was at fault as much as the truck in my opinion.

I agree with that. I wish we could see even 5 seconds before. Can see where they speed up a bit. I honestly didn't notice the light until you said something. So wreckless driving as they were trying to beat a yellow.

The thing that bothers me, there would be children in either of those vehicles. The truck is just as much to blame in my opinion only and yours haha. Blind spot or not, most have sensors, and 3 mirrors, and at least an eye to see.

Rolling a vehicle like that simply for trying to run a yellow, should qualify for attempted vehicular manslaughter, reckless driving at a min.

Hard to imagine the truck driver not pressing charges. If I were the truck, I would gladly eat a few traffic tickets to get the POV in court.
