The reason why these drivers are getting so pissed is because they know a cyclist can scoot over. They don't get nearly as upset at other cars or trucks in the same position because they understand that they can't go anywhere else.

Why not behaved like a civilized human being with some consideration for others and let them go past?
There WAS no next car. No next lane. READ before you go off on the OP.

You come across as a total asshat.

On a two lane road, to clear enough space for a normal size bus to make a right turn on red you'd have to go ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE STREET.

OP handled it correctly, driver was an asshat.
