fair enough, but you are speculating that all the traffic around driver was already at the speed limit and that the driver was exceeding it. I am suggesting that isn't what the video shows. As long as the driver was at or near the speed limit, scooter guy has no right to enter the lane until he can do so safely and without disrupting the flow of traffic. He didn't do either.

Quite frankly, I don't think the video gives any evidence of reckless driving by the car's driver. He was cut off, he braked as soon as he was presented by the disturbance in his lane and came to a stop quickly.
