Idiot had a death wish

This is my footage off my dash cam that I have specifically because of idiot people like the black car.
For context, I drive a van that is the same size as most of the Amazon delivery vans. It is significantly larger than this dude’s tiny little car. I was stopped at a red light in a turn lane, and I waited for the light to turn green before following through with the turn.
This waiting for the light to turn green apparently made the person behind me mad, who then whipped out to ride alongside me, wait for me to get behind them because I’m not in a rush and I’m not stupid enough to try and cut them off (even though they were originally behind me at the red light) and proceeds to brake check.
I believe they were going to try and do it again however I (behind the camera) gestured to my visible dash cam in the front window, at which point they swerve into the other lane then back and then speed up
Edit:
So apparently, I’m not supposed to stop before turning in that intersection. I was not aware of this. That is totally my bad and it does put me in the wrong in that regard. Thank you to those of you who have pointed it out as I was not aware.
Still doesn’t make the brake checking okay, but it does explain what I thought was inexplicable road rage
