Point taken hippy but he was static in the left lane going in the same direction as me on a two lane road, while I was in a clear right hand lane which also was for traffic going straight ahead - no right turn allowed. I was only there in the first place as he had filled the marked bike lane next to the kerb.
I was up and running having come through the green lights further back whilst he was at the red up ahead which always changes in sequence, about 20 seconds later. He had no need to change lane when he did, particularly if he could see I was right next to him, and he certainly had no need to run me into the middle of the road and hover on my shoulder - by which I mean I could practically feel the air flow around the front corner of the coach - making sure I could not get out of that position.
