Lucky he saw you and didn’t just reverse. A good thump ( by hand) usually frightens them.
I know lots of people that do go past and push the wing mirrors in, probably not whilst the driver is there ;-)

I was going to say Zzzz next time take a photo on your phone and report it to the police. But I am not sure they will do anything about it.

I was going along the pavement with my Rollator and there was a van partly on the road and pavement so I stood behind the van, the driver asked he could help, I said yes by moving your van as it shouldn't be there he gestured for me to go round it in the road, I said no I'm legal you are not, he said are you serious he could see by my face that I was so he moved. it has happened before and I'm fed up with it.
Rant over thanks.
