But then we know the police are as bad as the pubic with cyclists

Simply because the term is in common usage does not give it any basis in either law or actuality.
And having viewed that I would say the driver of the police car is a tit. Still and all that offers no justification for the cyclist to then commit S4A public order offences - after all, if you've got time to wave your hands around and swear you're clearly not busy making a life-saving avoidance manoeuver. Copper is a chump, and the cyclist little better if we're being honest.
