Wouldn't have minded, but I was indicating for a good 5 seconds before I started to move, conscious of him in the distance behind me. Guy didn't blink and gave me the option of killing him, or moving back into my lane..

Spotted car looking to enter the dualcarriageway, and nice guy that I am, indicated to the right to give them room.

If its a cyclist vs. a Car the Car wins every time. Have a little consideration for us cyclists who do our bests to obey the rules and are constantly harassed by Drivers who think they are superior. If anything its down to the fact the country has little or no catering for cyclists on roads. Peace Out.

What in hypothetical case where car A was pulling out from side road into main road, seen a car B 300metres away, and assumed he can go as car is far enough. Unfortunately car B was doing 200km/h and collided with car A. Whose fault is that? Driver of car A as he didn't give way to car B on the main road, or driver of car B who misleaded driver A by driving at excessive speed?

(what if OP had entered a turn earlier, he would have still been in lane 2/inner lane on the roundabout)
