I think so.

A couple of weeks ago I was stopped at a stop light on a one lane road with no bike lane. I was over as far left as I could be and still feel safe. Some old dude in a huge SUV came up behind me and laid on his horn. I gestured for him to roll up beside me and roll down his window. I told him that the light was red and cars coming the other way were turning left across the intersection. Where was I supposed to go?

He called me an a**hole and said that the only reason he didn't run me over was because I would scratch the paint on his SUV.

I thought my "F*** you!" was actually a fairly reasonable response to a guy who thinks that turning right on a red immediately is more important than a fellow human being's life.
