You're r wife sounds like mine Robin, I had a similar thing with a white van the other day, I won though.
You want fire in your hearth, not love.
I'm at work so haven't got sound, but looks more like road rage.
Seems people have an inability to merge (not sure on whos part though as only watched it quickly).
One thing is for sure though, the Focus defo slammed the anchors on, even if I apply my brakes on someone its never that much with that close a distance!
There's no sound on the video.
There was radio e some italian swearing, I didn't see the value of leaving them on
That and the fact that it would have shown that the sounding of the horn caused the braking?
Please, re-read my comments. I'm not having a go at you, I'm just saying that the braking seems clearly to have been a reaction to the use of the horn, rather than a deliberate attempt to cause an accident as an insurance scam.
Have now watched it at home on my PC.
Much ado about nothing. Your wife and him wanted the same bit of road, you were merging into his lane, he didn't let you in, your wife tooted the horn, he braked to teach her a lesson, you got out of your car like a Neanderthal and the rest is history?
He was a dickhead, but your wife didn't have any right to that bit of road, it was his to give to you and he didn't. There is no law regarding merging AFAIK.
you got out of your car like an Italian and the rest is history?
MAxi, he was merging in our lane...
Edited for accuracy.
It is not clear from the video exactly what happens to the lanes there. Is there a link to Google Streetview so we can see the road layout better (without big red buses and angry Italians in the way)?

Lets say that it is not part of a scam, but i'm not sure if it can't be considered a "deliberate attempt to cause an accident"...I seen many very nervous drivers but they always end breaking a bit. He completely stopped the car, I believe even the ABS went off.
Like an Italian?

I'm Italian, what else should I have in my hearth?
Some could say the same about the way you were trying to push your way in
Both vehicles were driving defensively IMO. And tbh that wasn't really fast enough for ABS to kick in.
