He probably thought that you had deliberately floored it to stop him from overtaking.
He sounds like a tt.
I genuinely hadn't, as I don't engage in drag races with my 4 year old daughter and pregnant wife in the car. He was nowhere near even completing an overtake. If I was to suddenly brake to let him past then I would have pissed off others behind.

He clearly was a tt (in a slow car wink)

I blame the driving instructor mostly. Based on the signs and the positioning of the range rover it was quite obvious that he wanted to get across, he indicated and started to move into the space. Only for the camera car to try to block the move, like a tt.

No need to keep chasing the guy either. Personally if I was the range rover driver I wouldn't have got out of my car though, I would have taken a deep breath and forgotten about it.
Why didn't the RR driver indicate earlier and be polite and decent about needing to get across? The 'fk you! I'm coming over' attitude is completely unnecessary.

Both as bad as each other.

If the Driving Instructor did that in the States he would of been shot !.....he should of know better.

Odd why the Range Rover sat at the lights for a while never indicating, then as the lights turn green indicates and forces the issue a little bit, so he is in the wrong. The driving instructor is just as bad and but rather than heeding he tries to hold his line and stops the guy from moving across.

Both in the wrong and the Driving Instructor is supposed to be a professional driver as well.

What was with the driving instructor pulling up alongside at every opportunity?
Whilst the RRS driver was a bit of a twohat the DI didn't exactly help matters.

There's no way the comments at the end are true. I'm not even sure I believe he's a driving instructor.

But there's no way anyone would take a look at that film and apply a punishment to only one of them.

I hope not, driving instructor was an utter valve and caused the issue in the first place, and I'm frankly getting tired hearing 'I'm reporting you to the Police' by nasal fktards because I know how many much, much better things cops need to do.

There's a website that implies a company with numerous instructors. They also post lots of videos to Youtube, including this

WTF! Is the suggestion that the cam driver wasn't at fault?! He would have been hit no matter what the other driver did!

Holy crap that's terrible driving from the dash cam car!

So if I've understood correctly, the dash cam car pulled out in front of the Audi which was in the left-hand lane. The Audi takes evasive action (into the right hand lane) only for the dash cam muppet to pull straight into the right-hand lane, consequently being hit by the Audi?

Looks like the Audi was carrying some speed but the actions of the dash cam car are wholly to blame imo. The two manoeuvres (turn left, then signal and move right) should have been completely separate. Crazy.

That's how most of us would do it.

I see buses doing this all the time; pull out from bus stop straight across into lane 2 - is this as illegal as it is stupid?

BMW driver takes L2 from the roundabout. Pretty sure there's nothing wrong with that.

Can tt decides to change lane without checking that it is safe to do so, almost causes an accident, blames the other driver and puts it on the Internet. We live in strange times.

Seems he entered a roundabout when it wasn't safe, entirely camera cars fault.
