The car driver almost certainly did look, just didn't look far enough away because normally you don't need a mile of clear road in order to make a right turn, it was the unusually high speed that led to the accident, the bike rider knew the risks he was taking.
I rather like the judges response in this accident, where he not only jailed the car driver but also jailed his passenger and 10 others, 140mph is simply not safe on roads like these and the driver knew that perfectly well.

If a car was doing 100mph through that junction then I would still blame that car, not the one turning.I wonder if you'd feel the same way if this were 2 cars instead?
