Hes coming onto your side of the road so he needs to give way to you and you’re not obliged to come to a stop to appease anyone coming the other way.
Take comfort in the fact that his attitude stinks and you ■■■■■■ him off!
very, very well said sir.
to the OP, ignore the usual vitriol you get on here and go with the above post, its ■■■■■■■ like the idiot who gave you the abuse that give this industry a bad name. ■■■■ em and anyone who looks like em.

Some days when I get home, I’m glad if the wife doesn’t speak. Getting worked up over being shouted at by someone you may never see again is pointless.As for him following you then you really should seek medication before the zombies get you.

Since this earlier today, I flashed someone in on the motorway, they didn’t then thank me with their indicators. Did I get irate? No!
Later I was in the exact situation that this ■■■■■■ was in earlier. I needed to move out on to the wrong side of the road to get round some vehicles. Out of 10 cars about half waved to thank me for waiting. Did I start hurling abuse at the 5 cars that didn’t? No!
You are very right, it’s drivers like that who give the industry a bad name, and it’s also drivers like that who can’t control there anger and have road rage that have, or will one day cause an accident because of it…or they will do it to the wrong person and get a bartering for it.
I know a few people who wouldn’t have just driven on like I did. They would have slammed on the brakes and dragged the bloke out of his cab and then given him the option to see if he still wants to continue being a prick or not or if he wants to get back in his cab, think about what he’s just done, and drive off with his tail between his legs. I know that makes them the same as him as they also can’t rise above it, and I’m not saying it’s right, hence why I didn’t do that and just drove on, but I hope he does that to the wrong person some day. May well shut his gob for a bit after that.

Don’t upset Honked pal, he’ll spark you out! 
His Missus has learnt NOT to speak! 
Chill man chill
If you were going slow enough to hear him speak, I would have stopped very quickly & joined in the conversation to find out what I had gone wrong, I have lost count of the times someone has blown a horn at me as I was crossing a roundabout & momentarily blocking their race track, if I can stop & block their path I just stop & walk back check the back of the trailer in a concerned manner & enquire if something has fallen off, the reply is normally no.

Ha ha, I’ve used that one too, but remember, we’ve all seen you leaping outa the cab and laying in to that poor innocent cyclist.

Near Scunthorpe just now, 2 lorries parked on the opposite side of the road from me but my side of the road clear, an artic coming towards me was signalling to move out and come round them. I’d already committed to go so I continued. I had my address in my hand to check the last bit
Can I just stop you there and put my pedants hat on; You were driving an enormous articulated lorry in a complex road situation whilst reading your delivery note 
May be the other driver was shouting "watch where your zb-ing going. LOL

just consider yourself lucky it wasnt ronnie pickering you peed off of you would be counting the stitches by now
Don’t hold your “address” in your hand, unless this is a euphemism holding paperwork and looking at said paperwork can get you in serious bother.
Memorise it beforehand at a safe location this will leave both hands free for pleasuring other motorists.
Pro drivers are used to cars not thanking them but from another pro driver is a no no, regardless of who has priority.
Thank everyone just to be on the safeside.

Well I guess I’m just not perfect like you or other pro drivers then because I wasn’t able to memorise the entire route including the very last turning in my head. My bad.
I wish this driver was on this forum then so I can offer him a full apology for not saying thank you as you clearly think that the abuse he hurled at me was therefore a justified and proportionate response to my error!
It will come with experience…
I also find other road users can over react at times but it’s just the nature of the beast, still reckon I’m well up in the throwing abuse at complete strangers game.

Reading this quickly and thought it said “someone who blows a member of the cycling fraternity”.
Thought that was a lot of knowledge about another forum member…
