The news is hard to extract from the silly stuff that people feel the need to add on.

I think a lot of road users can easily get aggressive and because cars have generally been less friendly cyclists can harbor some feelings that don't always turn out well which is certainly at least part of the case here. I think it would behoove everyone to tone done the aggression unless it is truly warranted where someone actually tries to hurt you. We could do with a little deep breath and a quick moment to think.

I think feeling the need to call the police all the time over everything is silly as they rarely will help cyclists and in many cases that I have been involved with they actually impede things or make them so much worse that you regret them being involved at all.
You seem to have figured out the news and truth about this entitled jerk's actions from the posted web site despite the article not meeting your standard for journalistic purity. You even managed to figure out that Mr. Peacock was acting aggressively and deduced that his unjustified, unlawful behavior may be because he is "harboring feelings" from who knows what, but I am sure you can imagine something.
