Generally I'd think a shout is more polite than a honk. I understand you didn't like the way she shouted it; so I probably wouldn't have liked it either; I can't say. Not having heard it, I can only speculate what I would have done... and I guess I probably would have given her a thumbs up and scooted over a little. But that's hypothetical.

But once she rams the bike with the car (the issue is contact, not speed or force), that's a totally different ballgame. The right thing to do, at this point, was to get the police involved. But again, I can't speculate what I would have done. Most likely I would have been in a hurry to catch a train, and wouldn't have had the time to fool around with a police report &c.

I don't understand why this car was in the bike/bus lane in the first place... did I miss something?
