A guy just pulled out in front of me, no hassle as I had already clocked him and he looked a bit unsure of his intentions, and I backed off accordingly.

Anyway, he goes, realises it will be a bit tight and raises his right hand to acknolwedge his mistake.

At least he realised and apologised. I was half expecting the coffee bean shake.

Good on him!

I always apologise if i make a slight misjudgment, problem is most people interpret your hand gesture as offensive and give you the coffee beans in response!

Same here. It costs nothing, does it?

And it immediately defuses the situation, your maglite goes back in your glove compartment, and all is well.

its so important to ALWAYS acknowledge other drivers when you make a mistake, or when they let you out etc.

nothing peeves me off more than when I stop to let someone out, or have to slam on breaks because a numptie has dome something stupid, when they just drive on and don’t even acknowledge it or say “thanks” with the hand or hazards.

Doesn’t take much to show a little manors.
