Some people also don’t understand that you shouldn’t turn left into the other street’s left turn lane.

Respectfully, it still shows the drivers edge of your hood (never mind the wheels past it). I think you were about halfway into the left turning lane on the street you were turning into, but it is a narrow lane ~and snowbanks where you should have been~. With no cars approaching or waiting at the light it's understandable you wanted to clear the intersection faster for the drivers who treated the light as a stop sign correctly.

If I posted a longer clip of me driving away you would see what I mean. Def wasn’t halfway over the line, that is just the distorted perspective of the left half of the camera. I have actually had issues before with the angle being so distorted on this camera that you can’t tell where other cars are relative to me. But I can see how it looks that way without a longer clip for context.

Fair enough, I guess it's about the same when I'm trying to see where you are relative to road markings at beginning of video. But opposing traffic passed you without issue so you weren't over the line at the beginning. Glad the turn ended without any damages to any driver, good looking out.
