This does sound likely. It’s possible the truck was large enough the cyclist was beside it when it slowed and signaled a a turn and the cyclist had no real opportunity to even see a turn signal, if used.

I think the truck driver likely turned without even considering the possibility that a cyclist would come up on their right side. Even though they almost certainly passed the cyclist moments before.

I’d bet the truck driver will say “I didn’t see them “ and nothing will happen. Unless of course the driver was under the influence at the time.
