What a terrible way to both die and kill.
I use 5th to Hayden Bridge often on way to a McKenzie ramp. Westbound drivers turning South on to 5th are mostly left-turn disabled, cutting into oncoming Northbound lanes. 
It's an annoying laziness that has crept into many drivers' safety habits. I guess turning a steering wheel with both hands has become unreasonable amid all the other cab activities.
But, it's a safe road and intersection with attention and moderate skill.
