What I'm struggling with is why you are quick to condemn him as needing to do his test again when from his point of view someone has cut into the lane he was about to join for no particular reason. Maybe he thought the bike had even moved over to let him out.

And then on seeing the bike had changed intention and moved into the other lane, he made the correct decision to abort pulling out... and no harm done...
