Surprised that people are trying to defend the driver. Plain and simple - he drove completely across a lane of traffic without checking that it was safe. The onus is upon the person doing the manoeuvre to check that it's safe to do so.
Yes the motorcyclist is going fast - but they've left enough space between themselves and the queuing traffic to reasonably expect safe passage. As long as they're within the speed limit.
Judging from the way this guy drove, the motorcyclist could have been going at half the speed and the guy would still have swung out without checking first.
Absolute idiot! Went flying past me on the A6 as if I was standing still (I was doing 40mph in the limit), the idiot then slammed on his brakes as there was a speed camera, before forcing his way through the traffic and speeding off again.
I've seen this same car stop and help a disabled person who took a tumble on the pavement in Bury St Edmunds. Even the young teens across the road applauded!

My drive is extremely awkward and he did very well to manoeuvre such a large vehicle safely in such a small space!
Thanks for your help with all of the electrical bits and bobs around my new home!
