I'd say it's very likely, yes, as evidenced by mileburner's obvious hatred of cars (and his determination to shove that down motorists' throats wherever and whenever possible), and the fact that I know many (unobstructive) cyclists and none of them are regularly beeped at.

Amazing that someone would continually put themselves in unnecessary danger just to make some loony non-point about how car use is supposedly some kind of vice. Of course, mileburner is by no means the only such psycholist, as I know you know by now (the worst URCM "moderators" are all interfering intolerant car-haters as well).
