No it is not justication to assalt cyclist or if in a car the run some one else off the road. But all reason goes out the window with a lot of people when they perceive their children , parents or spouse is put in danger or hurt . Some dumbass knocks some rednecks teen agers granny down and you just happen to be riding down the rode 2 hours later on a similar bike and the same jersey you are lible to get pushed off the road. Is it right ? no, but that doesn't mean it won't happen.
Just because it isn't ok, right, justified or legal does not stop some one from doing it . usually it is some "thinks he's a tough guy " wheather it is a redneck or gangbanger chances are He isn't going to take the time to make sure it is the one who offended him .
goes something like this
red Jersey, check
road bike, check
get him!!!!
I am a realist , justified or not it happens . I am an old school hillbilly you do something that reflects bad on me I will call you on it.
