I have had people do that repeatedly in Richmond, although I think they were either crazy or on something, but everytime they deliberately cut in front of moving traffic, expected you to stop and abused you while you tried not to hit them. Victoria street I pretty much expect it, even more so if a tram has just dropped off people.Quote:

The cyclist got there about 1min later, swerved over towards me, hit my bonnet with boths hands and yelled out something unintelligible, I was furious and if I had known he was going to do that, I would have moved forward slighlty so he fell off while hitting my car. If I had been someone onlooking I would have walked over and pushed him with both hands to see if he liked it. There are plenty of normal bike riders around, but that guy tops the list of A$$holes. It wasn't a bike lane either btw.
