Thank you. What I did was go to the turn off road a few feet up on the right to get my car off the road, put on my flashers and ran back to the gate, along the side of the road. As I approached the turtle, there were no cars at that moment, as the lady in the CRV was behind the gate. The gate went up and she ignored the turtle and hit its side, idiot. The resident gate then opened, the turtle had been hit, sped across to the resident lane and that idiot chose not to wait a few seconds and went over the turtle, narrowly missing it. I was then able to get the turtle moved safely. I was shocked these people were not more observant.
