What should I do?

[mr_hippo]

I had a pleasant 80km+ ride this morning - out of Bangkok on Highway 304 towards Chachoengsao before turning left at the 40km mark, going to Nong Jok and then back home. A brand new Nissan Tiida came close and knocked my mirror off, I was travelling at about 30kph at the time so should I:-
1) Start a new official very, very, very close overtake thread?
2) Report it to the police and have the driver done for ABH, GBH or attempted murder and have him hung, drawn & quatered then shot at dawn and finally made to do 275 hours community service at an LBS?
3) Mrs Hippo works about 5 minutes walk away from ProBike, should I ask her to pick up a matching mirror?
or 4) I have a spare non-matching mirror, should I put that one on?
I think I'll go for option 4.

Think yourself lucky he didn't clip you mr hippo - he could have done some serious damage to his wing...

Why not simply deal with it in whatever way suits you best, a bit like that other chap on here does?

Fantastic. That's probably what I'd have gone for too, although I'd probably have been pissed off enough with the driver to drag him out of his car and do him over, if I caught him. However, everyone deals with these things in their own way, and no one is right or wrong, ultimately.

5) Do more neck excercises and then you can do without the mirror!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Put it down to experience?

...and fix up a new mirror!

Be an arse and start a thread on here trying to look funny by taking the p*ss out of someone else who deals with things in a different way to you... oh you did that already.

5) Reassess why your mirror was positioned so badly that you were not able to see the moton coming ?
