If I read this right you were in the dedicated left turn lane and he was facing you in the dedicated left turn lane.
I believe there are too many safeguards in traffic control systems for it to be a control malfunction.
If he was intending to proceed straight then he was in the wrong lane. When the light turned to green arrow in his lane he figured he could dart across, intimidate oncoming traffic, and go on his merry way. And that is what he did and he got away with it.
And therein lies the problem. Driver arrogance, ignorance and downright stupidity.
The only good to come out of it was you escaped unscathed.
