Years of close calls and run ins with raged drivers have made a minor study of this subject. From the drivers point of view he/she has almost killed you and there is an adrenaline rush in reaction to that fear, whether or not it is conscious. The reaction to such triggers is anger.
If you can step back and chill them out often they will turn completely around and become normal nice people, sorry an all.
Of course this may not apply in this case because there are those who just are fking crazed flaming arses so have the D lock ready.
