wow, emailed the person in charge of the case, and I've just had a reply back (that's been less than 24 hours) saying progress is going to be rather slow, given that the vehicle was crapping-well hired and not by an individual but by a company. no wonder they guy was laughing so maniacally when I started to yell out his license plate number. But apparently due to lack of independent evidence and the circumstances regarding the incident the worst they'll get - if anything - is a warning.
@oliver, I'm all for having presence on the road etc and it's a turn I use almost every day, I was being over-cautious that day as there was bus parked up on the left near the right turn - so was giving myself plenty of time/space. Was more than 50m between me and following car. Dude was totally speeding to cover the space between us so quickly but yeah, I communicated alright (without swearing I might add), as he was undertaking me to hoof it through the ~1m gap between me and the bus at 30mph.
So, I see little hope of getting to redistribute any rancid milk (though i have taken notes hoonz & brave, thank you, evil has just reached a whole new olfactory level) which is a dang shame as I actually just happen to have the end of a pint in the fridge which smells about ready for action.
