Total idiot alright. Can see why you were so mad with what you haul.

I learnt some new words cause soon as I read turn speakers off I of course turned them on :)

Attached is ycato's rig for those who do not know what he is driving.
No one in their right mind is going cut in front and slow down. Well one would not have thought so.

Ycato - you were very polite!  Why did you take the foot off the throttle... LOL!  Sorry, I know you are a better driver than that.  Man you have some grunt in that truck!!!  Just two gears down until that happened... and you probably had the other truck right on your tail after that - his brakes would have been working too!  That tudor pulled back into the traffic without a care for space and traffic in the lanes as well. 

A  really hard job to pick the right gear after that... and the lanes were converging as well, just as well there is a wide striped shoulder there for a while.  You did a really nicely timed move and right of way and passed quite quickly.  Well done on all counts!  I know that hill too.

Those cameras are good to have - made enquiries about them ages ago.  Pleased that the Police are handling it now and hope he looses his licence.
What a fright for you though and with all those bends in it too.

Lets hope the guy missed a gear change when he pulled back in - otherwise he should have got a nudge into the gully coming up on the left! Do us all a favour and get him off the road.

Requests have been made as to what ycato was driving. With permission I have attached a photo of his huge rig under his video. Would you cut in front of this and then slow down!!!!!
