Default Did I handle this road rage incident the right away?

So I was driving home from work, a car in the right lane was behind a bus, turned on his signal light to merge. I was probably almost side by side with him so I sped up assuming he would just merge behind me.

He then tailgated me and cut me off multiple times (twice) within the next 500 meters. He then stopped his car mid traffic (not even at a light) and got out. He approached my vehicle and started yelling and screaming at me. At this point I really did not have anywhere to go since traffic was in the lane beside me and he had blocked all traffic infront of me. I avoided eye contact, made a mental note of his plate and after about 20 seconds he got back in his car. I went in the other lane and again he cut me off and continued to drive at about 30KM posted speed is 60KM, probably hoping that I would over take him and he could cut me off again. At the next red light he suddenly turned right and off he went.

I phoned the non emergency police line, explained the situation, gave them his plate number and filed a police report. They told me someone may or may not contact me.

How do you think I handled the situation? Would you have done anything differently?

Cheers,

Bluck
