This is ABSOLUTELY how I feel. The cyclist guy's obviously shaken up and frightened by the nutty driving, it shows in his anger and wobbly voice. The cafe owner twonk was SO quick to start going nuts at the rider it makes you wonder if he does this sort of thing a lot.
I had something similar happen to me in Nunhead the other day, it ended with a chase where I manged to find a traffic filter to pass through and leave the driver behind. I was totally freaked out and had adrenaline pumping like crazy. All started because I used my horn to hint that the driver was passing me too close. The guy immediately went into one.

yeah, my default response to any driver rolling down a window is generally shout first, think later, since it's usually at the end of some harum scarum clusterfuck of obnoxious, dangerous driving. Because I'm big and hairy it is usually effective at deflecting further abuse.

To be honest I'm always taken aback by how mental people get. Chap in Baywater tried to squash me and the wife with his X5. I asked him politely at the next lights to not do so next time. He got out of the car and went mental, raving on about how if he killed us he'd be angry about his insurance premium going up.
His wife (assume) and child were in the car.
Who are these people? What, exactly, is wrong with them?

I find it real easy to stay calm after someone his deliberately driven 2000kg of heavy machinery straight at me
