I had a guy chew me out at a red light once because he thought I was in his way. I politely pointed out to him that it was a red light and there was no where for him to go. This went back and forth a couple of times ("get out of my way" ... "its a red light") before the predictable "get on the sidewalk", to which I politely replied, "sidewalks are for pedestrians". It was at that point that he suddenly stopped and I could see the gears grinding in his head as he tried to comprehend that point. Then he started to get out of his car. I should point out that this whole episode, which is getting louder and louder (its a long light), is taking place right in front of a police station and the whole time the guy is on his cell phone. As he starts to get out, a cop strolls up and says "gentlemen, its such a nice day, what seems to be the problem?". The driver lodges his complaint against me to which the cop calmly says "he (meaning me, the biker) has the right of way. Shut up. Put your seatbelt on. Hang up your cell phone. And be on your way".
