So basically, there's a truck in the middle lane at a stop sign. Didn't see any warning signs nor blinker. I pulled up to the right. Traffic cleared up so we're about to go, and the truck turns right, with the trailer closing in and then hitting my mirror and door. FML

The trucker's company said they will pay for it or go through insurance.

****ty dude... Getting a new door to fit correctly and match the existing paint is going to be a bitch, so take it to an upper end shop.

The truck closed in, i wasn't even moving. I was gonna move and then i noticed it closing in. Thought about hitting reverse but it was too late.

That really sucks. He must've been a fresh noob truck driver if he thought he could change lanes like that...

Semis are the one thing I'm truly terrified of on the road.... and people towing ****. Around here if a semi wants to move into your lanes you flash your brights to let him know he has room to move over.

looks like there is some fender damage too.
i remember that same truck company almost hit me also. and i was on the freeway during that time. it was coming into my lane with out signaling. i hit the brakes and honked and i BARELY avoided it. that bar under the trucks license plate barely missed my front bumper. good thing my car is slammed!
