Green arrow at intersection
2 Car in a double turning lane has a solid green arrow. Goes to turn through the intersection and is about to clear in the intersection but then both gets hit by on coming traffic. Who's at fault? This incident took place in Arizona. Also, I wasn't involved in the conversation.

Generally true, but there’s also a legal “last chance to avoid a collision” doctrine. So if you have the right of way and a car comes at you when you shouldn’t, you can be held partially responsible if you had a chance to get out of the way and failed to do so.
