| You might be right, I was only going off what I could glean from the article, which may have been misleading. From the article:
"McLemore was on a four-lane road called Liberty Avenue, heading Northeast, while the Uber vehicle was approaching from the opposite direction." This description, led me to believe, they were on the same road approaching each other from opposite directions. As you can't really be going in opposite directions unless you're on the same road, or a parallel road. If that's not the case, I guess the direction they're referring to is the direction in which she was turning to go? Also from the article:
"'I was not expecting someone to turn from the far left lane into my lane,' the Uber safety driver said." Based on my understanding of the cars heading in opposite directions, I assumed he was referring to the lane furthest to his left. And he's claiming he was about to change lanes to the left, which would place him in the furthest right lane and her in the furthest left lane. I had assumed that she tried to turn left at the intersection, from the wrong lane, and hit the car in the process. |
