Confusion on Intersections

Had an interesting conversation today with a driver concerning an almost accident at 3 roads (T) junction/intersection. Driver A is heading north across the top of the T and driver B heading towards the intersection from the bottom of the T. Driver B stops and then makes a turn unto the lane north lane in which Drive A is on. Drive A then swings away out of lane to avoid hitting Driver B. Both vehicles stop and Driver B is arguing telling Driver A that he should have stopped before proceeding across the intersection. Driver A says “are you mad? missing a few screws? I have the right of way! there is no stop sign here”. Driver B says "it had a sign before but due to a previous accident, it got hit down and was not yet replaced. You should know the road you're driving on". No one was injured, but who really was at fault?
