This is an awful attitude to take. You shouldn't be riding motorcycles.

In a perfect world where 100% of drivers are 100% courteous 100% of the time, the blame would be on him. However, we live in a world where this type of driving is the norm, and unfortunately we have to take way more responsibility for our reactions to bad situations than the driver has to take for his stupid maneuvers. Yet here you are, kicking rocks in the corner, going NUH UH, IT WAS HIS FAULT, AND I ESCAPED ANYWAY, BIG DEAL while handwaving away all the advice people are giving you on how to become a better, safer rider. You can learn a lot about a person by the way they react to well deserved critique.

Maybe take some time off from riding and think about improving your attitude. You ain't gonna make it long with what you have now.
