So light turns red, I quickly jump off my bike and run to the opposite sidewalk and proceed to walk my bike along the sidewalk. Of course, next time the light turned green he drove past, shouting something incomprehensible (and some other drivers did as well.)
(emphasis mine).

Can't say I blame those other drivers for shouting at you, since you decided to punish them, along with the offending driver, by making them wait through a green light.
