Default Near Miss of the Day 450: Crap driving, embarrassed accelerating away

QUOTE:
Today's offering in our Neaer (SIC) Miss of the Day series shows a driver overtaking a cyclist and having to pull in sharpish due to oncoming traffic - then accelerating away as though in embarrassment.

It happened in Brook in the Hampshire part of the New Forest and road.cc reader John, who submitted the clip, summed it up quite pithily.

"Terrible overtake, on a bend with oncoming vehicle, subsequent cut up' followed by heavy braking!"

Agree it was a terrible place to try to overtake.
But driving to the rear of the traffic ahead does not strike me as
"accelerating away as though in embarrassment".
