That's not the point. The point is the way the cyclist responded was wrong. He was a hot-head. He had a bike lane. If he'd used it he wouldn't have had the problem. And if the bike lane is unusable he should take his anger out on the city and get them to make it useable or remove it or whatever it takes to solve the situation. Taking it out on the bus driver was only taking it out on the nearest target and wasn't going to solve anything.
