I could guess that the "click-click-click" of the hazards and the driver's intention to turn left, could've entered his mind that he had his indicator out.
But that still doesn't absolve him from his responsibility to ensure that the road, IN EITHER DIRECTION, is clear before he starts to make his turn.
You could be held more liable if it was a properly-constituted road junction, with signs and road markings, but not under these circumstances.
Just my humble opinion.
What did the following car's occupants have to say about "speed"? Is there a speed limit on this bit of road?
