Put yourself in the driver's shoes.
How would you feel if you were told that he's (the cyclist) within his right to ride in the centre of the road for his safety? or that you should give him a car width when overtaking? etc.
And remember it's not easy to get a driving license (unless it's my grandfather) so being told what to do/should do by a cyclists whom doesn't need a license to learn how to ride doesn't make it any better.
Even with excessive beeping and the insult, it's still best not to get involved, you don't need to, there isn't any requirment in the Highway Code stated that you have to interact with other road user on how to proceed.
