Yes, I did that ^^ on purpose.😊
That ^ was his real mistake. Phasers to Disintagrate before the overtake and he would have been fine, Horse would have vanished.

Funnily enough, I had no problem seeing him ...

And FWIW my car is bright red and has DRLs :D

I can't remember if it was when I was learning to drive or ride (both were a while ago!) but I was told that anything which forces another driver to take avoiding action is bad driving. I tend to agree with that assessment.
I seem to recall being told that causing another road user to alter their course and/or speed would result in an instant fail under test circumstances. No idea how true that is but it's stuck in my memory.
