That's faulty reasoning. His judgement could have been completely wrong, and he just got lucky this time.

I don't. The only time I would choose to endanger my own life on my bike is if the alternative is endangering someone else's life.

Heh it'll work until someone on their phone doesn't even see them. In my case, I had to swerve left of center while blaring the horn. The guy rolled the sign >15mph.
When riding a bicycle, you often choose to endanger your own life and break the law in order to be less of an obstacle to motorists -- motorists, who in turn, almost certainly curse under their breath about how you should just obey the rules. Aggro assholes are gonna be aggro assholes.
