What evidence is there that the driver was appreciable "inconvenienced" (let alone "grossly")?
The "two wrongs don't make a right" rule that you must have heard as a child applies to driving: the behavior of other drivers does not provide an excuse for unsafe behavior. Nor does being "inconvenienced" or being impatient.
