I was driving into work one day and there was a bicyclist in my lane one day, because there was a marked bike trail that was parallel to the road a right off the curb. I figured he was attempting to cross the lanes to get to the other side. As I enjoy bicycling myself I wanted to be courteous. So before switching lanes to avoid either one of us swerving into each other I tapped the horn to let him know I was there and I passed without incident.

While waiting at the traffic stop down the road the bicyclist pulls up alongside my car raps the window hard and flips me the bird while screaming about his rights to ride on the streets and heaven knows what else and then proceeds through a red traffic light. Elephanting arse!

Seeing this video allowed me to project my fustration on that guy. I do not advocate violence by any means but sometimes when two angry people cross paths there is that guilty pleasure of seeing them pummel each other and vicariously satisfy the resentment that one feels for people like them.
It was broke, so I fixed it.
