Audi dangerously overtakes just to pull in FG65GXE

Birmingham, United Kingdom

14 Feb, 2022 - 4 years ago - on Tyburn Road

As the Audi followed me it gained on me until it was dangerously close, especially given that it was dark and raining. As I approached a lorry partially blocking the left lane and possibly reversing out I prepared to stop but after a short while I realised it was not moving. I decided the safest options were to pass the lorry in the right lane in case it started to reverse or stop and wait if the right lane was too busy. I checked over my shoulder twice which should have indicated to the driver behind that i was about to move right. I saw a safe space in the traffic and started to pull into the right lane but the driver chose this moment to pull out and pass me stopping me from moving fully right. I was then shocked to see the vehicle turn left into the garage directly after the lorry. This was very dangerous as the lorry was blocking the drivers view of the garage
entrance until the last moment, especially considering the conditions and the vehicles
speed.
