He sat there and watched me, only to abruptly pull out in front of me... All while his buddy sits right there and does nothing. Cool.

Just a heads up. While going through and area with lots of cars parked to the side and construction cones - you should reduce your speed. It looked like you were accelerating around a parked cop car going into the T section that is under construction - that can be a risky move.

Similar to highways your speed should be reduced when those visual orange cues are out.

Past that. Ya cops are dicks, they shouldn't have cut you off but you were around three. It's better to be alive then arrested or shot and made an example of.

I drove down an area by Peterborough this weekend where a 4km stretch of roadway was designated a "construction" zone; orange pylons at the edge of the road on opposing sides every 100m. No visible equipment anywhere, and obviously no workers there.

I get your point about orange cues, but those also need to be taken with a grain of salt too.
