I certainly wouldn't have tried to squeeze down the left hand side, maybe the video doesn't portray things very well but it looked like there was ample time to avoid the undertake Shocked

Looks like a classic SMIDSY to me. At least you weren't speeding, so had bit extra time to act accordingly.

I wasn't going to, but after sounding the horn I saw that the driver had then seen me, so rather than braking hard on a cold road/cold tyres I took that line, admittedly anger played a part in choosing that action which I'm not proud of Embarassed - but these clowns f'ck me off Mad
I need to count to 10 when this sh1t happens.
3 minutes down the road a white Mondeo started to pull out on me on a roundabout too (but then braked sharply after seeing me), weekends around home towns are worse than rush hour into London for SMIDSYs!

I think your action was no problem at all!
You weren't shouting, just beeped and blipped.
I often try to beep and flash the indicator.

Surprised you didn't put your fist through his/her mirror/window.

Took it better than I probably would have. Thumbs Up
