A fit of road rage shows motorist get violent with truck driver
Updated | By Jacaranda FM
Yikes! This is far from good road etiquette...
Road rage is defined as the violent behaviour displayed by a motorist in response to the actions of another driver.
Many people display road rage on the streets of South Africa, and sometimes it has even resulted in serious injury or worse, death. Nevertheless, we always encourage people to keep calm when driving because some drivers can 'rev' you up the wrong way...
A video shared on social media shows a motorist speeding up to catch up with a truck driver who allegedly tried to run him over.

The video was posted by a man who sounds English; this detail and the registration plates led us to believe that this occurred in the United Kingdom.
In the video, we see the truck (horse and trailer) pull up to a traffic light, and then a car speeds in the next lane only to park in front of the truck.
The motorist inside the car exits his vehicle, walks up to the truck and incessantly tries to open the truck driver's door. When he cannot, he jumps up, climbs through the window, and disappears into the carriage.
Not much more context is provided thereafter, but we do see another man walk up to the truck to open the door, and then the video ends.
