Moment furious driver HEADBUTTS van's window & screams ‘get out of the way' in blazing road rage row
Milad Sherzad, News Reporter Published: Invalid Date, THIS is the shocking moment a furious driver headbutted a van's window before launching into a furious road rage rant. As temperatures soared during the heatwave last week, one van driver struggled to keep his cool after coming face to face with another vehicle at a junction in West Kensington, London. 6 6 6 The pair of vans almost collided while trying to turn at the intersection, causing one driver to completely lose his head. In incredible footage, the hot-headed driver can be seen with his face close to the driver-side window of the other van, shouting at the motorist. He can be heard shouting "get out of the f**king way" before pulling on the other van's door handle. As other frustrated motorists begin to blare their horns, it appears to set the angered van driver off, inspiring him to smack his head against the other van's window. Onlookers were left disgusted as the enraged van driver turned even more foul with his language, at one point even threatening the motorist. He appears to scream out: "I'll f**king kill you man. Get out of the f**king way. Get out of the way." Midway through his foul-mouthed tirade, the driver then walks around to the other side of the vehicle. Sounds of the man hitting the vehicle appear to echo through the street, with the angry driver continuing to shout: "Get out of my way." Eventually, the rage-filled driver relents and returns to his motor - reversing it and then driving away. Not before he leaves, however, the driver stops once more to look at the other motorist before shouting further expletives and gesturing at him. Moment driver pounds car with bat before being rammed by 'idiot' motorist One passerby, who wanted to remain nameless, said she heard the man shouting: 'Get out the way, move, get out the f**king way.' Ironically, the driver of the motor transporting ice remained cool and calm during the tirade. Temperatures hit around 27C in London on Friday, when the shocking exchange took place. The passerby explained that they believed the ice van driver should have given priority to the other vehicle. They added: "However, it does not give any right for the man to behave aggressively and shout and go full on rage. 'I genuinely thought he was about to drag the ice driver out of the van and start a fight. 'It was a hot summer Friday afternoon, and the heat probably didn't help the situation.' Members of the public were left shocked by the footage. Lee Willis said: 'Telling him to get out the way then he is the one who moves.' Another added: 'For god sake, one of you just move out the way, takes more of a man not to have so much ego.' 6

Driver's keys taken during fight on Southern California freeway
An apparent road rage incident resulted in heavy delays on the 215 Freeway in San Bernardino when one of the people involved left the scene with the other driver's keys, officials said. The incident was reported shortly before 7 a.m. when the drivers of a van and a car got out of their vehicles, leaving at least one lane blocked on the northbound side of the freeway near Devore Road. Both drivers then began fighting on the freeway, allegedly because the van had been cut off by the other driver, who then 'brake checked' him, the California Highway Patrol stated. The driver of the van called the CHP, telling them that he had been kicked and had his keys stolen by the other motorist, who then drove away. The caller had also suffered facial injuries during the altercation, the CHP stated. Because the van could not be moved off the freeway, traffic through the area was delayed while a tow truck responded to the location. The caller told investigators that he had been spit on and then kicked when he tripped trying to confront the other driver. No description of the other driver or his vehicle has been made available. Authorities are also searching for a truck that drove away after apparently striking the van as it sat on the freeway. Video from the scene showed the van being hooked up to the tow truck around 7:30 a.m. The scene was cleared a short time later.
