I waited for a reaction, which didn't materialise.
I was merely wondering if you could have made your move earlier, and got the new situation (i.e. your lane change) established before it became likely to interfere with the other fellow.
The objective should be to avoid doing things that cause others to change course or speed in order to accommodate us, but that is very much an ideal, and in busy traffic I don't think it can always be done. So long as we allow others plenty of time to make their adjustments, it seems to me that we should accept that. After all, in many cases our mere presence on the road interferes with what others would have done had we not been there at all.
Best wishes all,
Dave.
