I think /links should be renamed /DashCam
Also, HGV driver sped up instead of letting the twat in. Presumably he thought causing an accident/risking life was better than damaging his pride.

But that also means the caravan man would have to have sped up to throw his vehicle in front of it all.
Which seems to make him more the toss pot.

weird how his swearwords undergo some kind of stepwise downgrade
he goes from "fucking idiot" to "frigging idiot" and then from "you're so in the shit" to "you're so in the crap".
I guess he's just gradually cooling down from the initial impact.

I can't believe the number of YT comments saying the truck driver is entirely to blame
OK so next time I want to change lanes I'll just indicate and pull over, even if there is a solid line of traffic.

^This
If you fuck up your approach to a motorway junction, you've either got to drive to the next one or pray that someone is feeling charitable. This caravan driver is a total prick. I actually thought he'd given up. The last few secs of the vid blew my mind.

Don't think either side covered themselves in glory there
I mean the HGV driver had priority, but I wonder if his pride was worth more than the damage.

HGV drivers hate to slow down for anyone cos their stupid lorries take so long to accelerate again.
Caravan driver is also massive prick.
This is why there are so many tailbacks cos of combined actions of selfish prick drivers.

The caravan owner looked exactly as I imagined
I'm with the lorry driver on this one - the caravan owner looks like he'd done his best to scoot up the line of traffic and try to cut his way back in and was completely in the wrong place - the onus was on him to wait for a gap or carry onto the next junction, not just blunder into the lane assuming everyone else would make way.
EDIT: Actually rewatching it, it looks like he was aiming for the gap in front of the car in front of the lorry, notices the police car so guiltily tries to file in behind before he runs out of room, and fails.

That's not a Police car up front
That is a maintenance vehicle of some form. If it was plod then I doubt the White Van Man would have cut in front of him like he did.
I can't see any stage of Mr Caravan's pulling in that even makes sense. The only way that manoeuvre can work is if the lorry slammed on his brakes. (Not something the lorry driver wants to do... have you tried getting one of them things up to speed again!)
Even that wouldn't have work as Mr Twat Caravan driver is trying to pull in to the left where there isn't even a gap for the car let alone the trailer. The *only* way this could work is if the lorry could magically disappear.
