No idea what he was thinking, but it doesn't save him any time.

Ouch! Noticed the car in front was the typical A12 type, sitting in the outside lane until all the way out of sight with fk all on his inside. That would have been a big insurance claim, all that barrier to be replaced, lane closure etc etc

Actually if you look at it on full screen the leading car does actually start to pull over, Fiesta goes for the undertake just as he does this and hence ensuing carnage!

He pulls over to block the Fiesta - look at how quick he mirrors the Fiesta's move, then as the Fiesta returns to lane 2 he swerves back into lane 2 to block him.

... And stays there until out of site. The usual on the A12 unfortunately

Do you think every motorist is an angry man getting revenge?

More likly he went to pull to back into lane 1, daw that the fiesta had swerved that way and was closing quickly so swerved back not wanting to cut the guy up.

Ended exactly like you do when walking towards someone and you both go the same way a few times.

I didnt see it as an active block, I think the Fiesta coming up behind quickly the guy infront didnt know what to do.

No, I can just tell from driving for a living who is acting like a and who isn't.

Well so can I as I have many 100s of 1000's of miles under my belt....and as far as I can tell....you are guessing.

You can see the lead car dab the brakes, which causes the Fiesta to brake then decide to try and undertake. The lead car then tries to block the undertake, then dives back into the outside lane. Both drivers are idiots.

I thought you were all "mad angry drivers" until I also noticed the brake dab. Both cars acting like tts but the Fiesta got what he deserved for trying to do a fast undertake, especially heading towards an entry slip.

A bit harsh, the Ford-Pester was approaching with a large speed differential, it is easy to confuse an inexperienced driver, an elderly one or suffer a road anger reaction.

Lesson No1, there is zero reason to pressure any driver like that,
Lesson No2, do not trust any driver,
Lesson No3, learn to control YOUR own car before driving like a dick.

The Pester got himself/herself into that situation and could not control their car.

Pretty much this. Doesn't look an intentional block to me.

Have to say it looked that way to me too. The final swerve to the right - is it actually a swerve or just how it looks as the road bends to the right? Really not sure at all.

Have to agree with zoo here. From the angles it looks like he was passing van on inside lane and as they went to move left plonker tried to undertake at speed so moved right to avoid collision. It is possible they simply blocked the incoming car but ... its hard to say in all honesty.

I think the fact they stayed out in the rh lane was a possible indicator of ppd and lane discipline and that being the case it would also b likely they would potentially try block someone they felt was driving wrong...

Not necessarily. I have come across instances where people in the outside lane have been surprised by someone coming up behind them and have braked before moving left and this could be another case of that. Sadly none of us will ever know.
