Hard to see exactly what happened, but you seemed to sort it out.

Wendy:
Nothing too exciting, he just tried to overtake, then aggressively beeped and pulled rude signs at me after I made a stopping motion.  (click the "more" bit on the video description at top right to get the full text).

Dave:
Looks like my commute out of Luton. I get attempted overtakes and actual homicidal overtakes every bloody day.

Had a learner driver brush my sleeve with her wing mirror (great teaching there, BSM  ::-))

Had buses so close that if I moved my elbow out I could touch the side.

Lorries, taxis, vans, cars, you name it. Lost count of the number times the overtake has been so bloody stupid that a car coming the other way has had to brake/swerve/flash its lights.

Why? Why are they so fucking desperate to overtake? It must save them, ooh, several seconds from their journey...

clarion:
I have on occasion stopped on the passenger side of learner cars to discuss with the instructor what they were teaching about other road users.

On one occasion, I discovered that it was the instructor driving.  >:(
