"I approached the 4-way stop, signaling to make a left turn and made a complete stop. About 2 or 3 seconds later, the other driver approached the 4 way stop in a giant Ford F-250 with oversized wheels. We essentially arrived at the same time, so in order to avoid confusion; I wanted him to go first. He didn't seem to have acknowledged me and seemed to be distracted, making it an unsafe situation. After several failed attempts to make some kind of eye contact with him, I could see that he was clearly rummaging through things in his car and that he was in his own little world. After waiting a significant amount of time for him to proceed, I could tell he just wasn’t going to budge. I decided to go ahead and proceed with my turn, and let go of my brakes and carefully made my left turn as to not alarm him. Almost complete with my turn, about 90-percent, and he just lets go of his brakes and slams right into my passenger rear side, failing to yield to a vehicle already in the intersection."
