He turned left from the right hand lane...

I have just been in an accident (in the UK by the way) involving myself in a car, and a larger truck. We were both driving along a road with two lanes, him and the right and me roughly level with the back of his vehicle in the left lane. Suddenly he has turned left and I have gone into the side of him and mangled the front right of my car. After discussions he said that he was doing this due to the size of his vehicle and was indicating to do so (so let's assume he was). Am I in the wrong for not spotting him indicating and therefor not letting him come across my lane, or is it still his responsibility to check his mirrors before turning?
