We seem to have slightly crossed wires here, I was talking about the cyclists initial response to being passed in that manner.
I don't think anyone is debating the driver was a dick, just saying the cyclist was almost as much a dick and, imo, could definitely fit the profile of 'camera wearing victim complex cyclist'

He followed with plenty of verbal abuse some shoving and then kicking before he injured himself enough to be stopped. Had a cyclist pulled/pushed at the cars mirrors in the same way as the driver did the riders camera/bike then it's not unusual for punches to be thrown.
Would you say the driver's response to that was proportionate and/or constructive re improving rider awareness?
You can apply all the questions you are to the rider to the driver...
