Default Snowbird almost crashed me

What do you guys think about the snowbird driving?

The video is ambiguous rewatch with sound @ 16-17 seconds a snowbird (old person from up north) almost crashes into me head on when he is suppose to yield (I had the green arrow)
@ 52-55 seconds he curses at me, at no point in the video did I curse. Thank you

316.075 Traffic control signal devices.— "In reference to the first question about making a U-turn on a left arrow, you must be sure that the Intersecting traffic doesn't have a green arrow allowing them to turn right, as most lights in South Florida do. If this is the case, the person who is on the intersecting street, and has a green arrow to turn right, has the right of way."

can't make out what was said. But why didn't you stay/turn into your own lane? I've been "almost crashed" by people who make it a habit out of sailing across lanes when making turns.

at 53 seconds I can't believe he said it....
I don't get it? The only thing I saw is that you don't know how to drive & you curse.
