I know the road well. First short straight where the silver golf/polo went is OK for an overtake as decent visibility, maybe 2 cars if you're quick enough. Tailgating in a 12 yr old disco with a trailer isnt a move I'd consider.
Second bend where he fails to see the bikes is just inexcusable - he fails to pull in to let the oncoming car through initially, but with his height should be able to see over the 2nd car to be overtaken, gets onto wrong side where he should see 3 visible bikes, but decides he's going anyway...?
Only slight criticism of the 2 overtaken cars is that you could (not should!) have perhaps accepted the Disco driver is a twat and to save an innocent victim/crash then react to his awful driving by slowing/moving across to let him through - the Astra in front could have moved over at least. Or defended your roadspace if you'd seen him coming, but I doubt that would have made any difference to the tosspot. That's an ideal/drivers manual type world so on a drive back from the seaside it's asking a great deal!
Hope his dinghy capsizes next time
If he's got one he should have his licence taken away. He's simply not safe enough to be on the roads. It's only a matter of time before this prick kills someone...
