Given that the driver physically assaults the cyclist, while the cyclist may not be above criticism, I find it hard to consider their actions as morally equivalent.
And quite frankly, I also find it hard to see that the response from the cyclist was overly aggressive. The recipient of his justified anger was after all sitting safe and sound in 2 tons of locked metal box, so could hardly feel physically threatened by a shouty cyclist. The Audi driver acted like a fucking prick, and can't have too many grounds for complaint if someone draws his attention to this fact.
