It's true that the sight lines are not so bad on the turn she was making- I think the culprit is the angle of that turn, and how fast a vehicle is able to go. Turns from Wellington Street North don't have very good visibility of the crosswalks.
The motorist was turning left at what is right now in effect a threeway intersection. She only had one thing to check for, people in the crosswalk, and couldn't manage to do that. I feel that the intersection's design is to blame, but maybe the motorist's age did contribute. If so, she shouldn't have been driving, obviously.
