contents We analyze the dynamics of BPS 3-vortex solutions. First, for unexcited vortices, we study the 2-dimensional moduli space of centred vortices with $y \to -y$ symmetry, and its metric. We identify the 1-dimensional subspaces describing the head-on collisions of equidistant collinear and equilateral triangle configurations, where geodesic motion results in $90^\circ$ and 60^\circ$ scattering, respectively. Second, by studying the frequency spectrum of vibrational shape modes along these subspaces, we explain how the force-free, geodesic motion is modified by shape mode excitations into a pattern of chaotic multi-bounce collisions.
