no I dont know cause it was fast I didn't even have chance to see his front.
Also, I have to say from the video, yeah, he did chance into the lane a second late before me, where from 11sec I start turning and hit on the 14sec. his came out 13.5~7 sec and hit so he prob cut into the lane at 13 sec. Also, I think he should see me turning in at 12.5sec since he is on the driver side. When he was on the fourth lane, he didn't have turn signal on and I really thought he was going straight.
hate my $1,000 deductible.. gonna change to $500 near future

haha, that guy's face expression was pretty funny. It looks like OP is already in the lane, and I think the other driver is more at fault -- and he was going a lot faster, so he must have been behind when he switch lanes. Did you use your turn signal? A lot of times I tried to avoid going like this if there is any car behind me, unless it's 2 lanes over or way behind me, since I don't know what they're going to do.

If I was the insurance company and got my hands on this video I would say both parties were at fault. What you should have done first was act as if you had no video of the accident and see what his insurance company would have done. Because honestly, the pictures show you in your lane and he not just cut you off, but hit you clearly. But seeing the video shows you both merging about the same time, the video might be your downfall.
Sorry bro, but I wish you luck!

you didnt see him coming from the right? you shoulda saw him speeding up since you were changing over anyways
either way both of you are at fault. you more than him, (u were in back of him and hit him).

in my opinion it seemed that it was more of his fault because you did signal and also you beat him to the lane faster as I recall from the video, and then he turned. but also is that the website where you got the camera from? seems really good quality.

To me, it looks like you were almost entirely in that lane (you were already beginning to straighted your wheels out), and then the other guy merged in, at a pretty sharp angle, and hit you. In the end, it'll probably be shared liability, but you should push for the other guy being fully at fault.

the way it looks to me is, you were already in the lane. he obviously wasn't paying attention and or he just didn't give a damn. i would need to see the accident from a frontal view to be sure. i would say it was his fault though.

Sorry to see this happen to you Jason. My opinion is that it could really either be a shared fault or his fault. Theres a possibility that he saw you and your car was already pretty much in the lane, the other driver did not check his blind spot before he changed lanes. I hate that, even though I have my fair share of close accidents caused by this type of incident.
