At an earlier court hearing, Paul Edwards, aged 44, had pleaded not guilty to the charge.
It related to an incident involving a Vauxhall Vivaro van on the B5062 at Tibberton, near Newport, on July 21 last year.
However, Worcester magistrates found Edwards, of Greenacres Way, Newport, guilty in his absence.
Edwards will next appear at Worcester Magistrates Court on June 14 to be sentenced.
The B5062 has been the scene of a number of serious crashes. Two cars and a motorbike collided in November last year, and a woman was killed in a one-vehicle crash in August 2018.
