I've had similar happen. A little quick thinking, and I simply stopped (no traffic behind me) on my side of the road - admitedly I wasn't anywhere near the side of the road, but I was on my side.

They kept coming.

So quickly hit the kill switch & stepped off the bike, ready to run & leave the bike there. That's when the guy stopped, as he had no way to squeeze past. Should of seen his face.

I just walked over to his window & asked why he thought he had priority. He swore at me a little, and after I suggested that next time, being patient may mean he gets to his destination quicker, I got back on the bike, started it, and rode as close to him as I could on the way past.
