I drive a school bus. I give bicyclists so much room .. you can't believe.
If I can't give the cyclist room, I wait till there is room.
I have honked on occasion. I do this way back, so the cyclist isnt scared.
This is just to tell the cyclist I'm coming along.
While I hate to admit it, there are some cyclists who break the rules. I've
come across a few who ride in the middle of the road when there is plenty of
shoulder.
In a city, dealing with city buses, I would not bother to yell at or
confront the driver.
It would be better to immediatly call the bus company, tell the dispatch or
ask for a supervisor, and give them the bus number, etc.
When you get home, write a letter, send it to the authority or transit
company. Also send a copy to the police department, mayor, etc. Make sure
a few agencies get the letter. This way they must respond to each other and
eventually the bus company.
The "cc" in a letter is a very powerful tool.

LA bus drivers (and cops) do tend to be surly, but this is over the top:
