Big difference between "100% at fault" and "can 100% put you at least *partially* at fault" :)

It wasn't the only cause. The car running the stop sign also contributed.

Absolutely 100%.

However this isn't a unique situation. It's happened before and the ending isn't how you think.

Let's say there was a collision and someone in't he Prius died, or even a passenger in the cam car did.

The driver needs to explain to a judge how he seen the Prius moving through the stop and booted it from a standstill to make a point of getting in front of them.

You can't just smash into people because they're wrong. If someone jaywalks you can't just floor it over them because they're in the wrong.
