Tractor meets Golf on a country road

So there I was driving home from Ennis to Killaloe over the mountain road from Tulla to Bodyke in the townland of Ballynahinch. Just coming on to dusk with the fog lights on indicating as there was a clear road and I'd be past the small tractor in a couple of minutes. I had pulled out but just as I started to speed up to overtake him I noticed something from the left hand side then felt the impact as the tractor engaged with my car.The shock brought me up short and I stopped dead. Back and forth, back and forth he drove trying to disengage the tractor from my car tearing off my front bumper as he did so. Eventually he succeeded and drove the tractor into what I presume was his own field just past me. He was surprised that I wanted to phone the Gardai I think. I couldn't find my phone and had to flag down a passing car to borrow one. A Garda on his way home to Tulla came along the road and took all the details. The tractor had no lights and no indicators. Its owner was a man of few words but he did give me his name and details confirmed by the Garda. My own car a black Golf was drivable so I slowly drove home escorted from Tuamgraney by my husband. As I made my way a queue of traffic built up behind me and many of them frustrated by my moderate pace 'flashed' their lights. I reported the incident to the insurance company. After a hot shower I went out to my book group meeting and enjoyed the evening.
