If the trucker had tried to pull into the center turn lane, he would have had to travel a significant distance against oncoming traffic in Ramness' lane before being fully merged into it, and would have caused Ramness to have MUCH LESS time to react since most if not all of the trailer would still be in his lane at that point before the entire length of the truck would have made it fully within the turn lane.
