OK, here's the brief back ground. A buddy and I were riding on a two lane rural road, with minimal shoulder, about 10AM Saturday. My buddy was about 1/4 mile ahead of me. Most of the drivers were really good. However, we did have one close call. One driver buzzed me pretty good. I'm sure it wasn't as close as I thought it was but still scared the shit out of me. My buddy got buzzed pretty good as well. When the car was by him he flipped him the bird.
The driver took issue with this and actually stopped right there in the middle of the road got out of the car and started yelling at my buddy. By the time I got to the scene he was finishing his yelling and got back in his car and drove off. We did get the license number.
my question is this: what's the best way to deal with a situation like this when it happens? Call the cops right then and there? Phone it in after done with ride? Other options?
Obviously, the best solution is to not have the situation occur. However, sometimes it doesn't work out that way.
Hoping for some good advice as this was a first for me.
