> The truck driver does have a right to move into his blind spots if he has taken sufficient precautions to ensure that they are safe.
On the contrary, if someone is in his blind spot when he moves over, he has, by definition, failed to take "sufficient" precaution. The car not being legally responsible if the truck moves over into the area legally occupied by the car is what absolves it from fault. There's an entire industry of ambulance chasers profiting off the truck driver's absolute fault, and a phonebook size book of underhanded procedures the trucking companies try to use to duck that absolute fault.
Unless, of course, the driver crossed under his trailer from the other side, Fast and Furious style.

> If you get hit by a truck and die, you're still dead regardless of who's at fault. Which, incidentally, is exactly what I've been saying this entire time.
That statement is correct on its face, and doesn't raise any argument at all.
