If there’s no where to safely emergency park a car except for the bike lane that’s on the town or city and where the anger should be directed.
Ok, but that’s my point, it wasn’t safe to park on the bike lane and it never is. Where do the bikes go even if the cyclist sees it beforehand? On the road.
If I have to choose between endangering someone in a metal cage or someone who has only air separating their meat from the road, I will choose the former, always.
I find its better to focus on how that can be prevented from happening to others, and protect future bicyclists because people like me are too fearful to even try with how the roads currenly are…but to each their own.

Even better is to push for better infrastructure so no one is in danger?
Sure but you won’t build better infrastructure in that moment that was talked about in the previous comments.
