It looks like it re-routed down the side street at exactly that moment. You can see the projected path line shift to that street immediately before.

It doesn't look like it would have hit anyone to me (it was only partway through turning, so was facing people when it or he aborted it, but that's not the path shown on the display), but it was definitely an illegal move.

Step through the video frame by frame; you can see the car begin turning back to the left before the driver takes over. He actually stopped the left turn; the car would have recovered quicker without his actions.

Not that the driver was wrong to do what he did; we have the advantage of frame-by-frame replay. But the frame-by-frame does show that this is not what it appears at first glance.
