Shocking moment furious lorry driver 'attacks' another HGV Driver

*This Video is from 2016*

Road rage rarely goes beyond shouting and swearing, but one HGV driver was so irate he climbed out of his lorry and tried to attack another driver.

The shocking incident was caught on dashcam from what is believed to be a HGV.

The vehicle filming was driving towards a far right M6 toll booth when a large red lorry from Clitheroe-based T & J Haulage crossed over several lanes in an attempt to enter the same one.

'Where the f***ing hell you going?' the HGV driver can be heard shouting as he speeds up to avoid collision, thereby getting to the tollbooth first.

However, as the HGV approaches a junction afterwards the lorry suddenly pulls out in front him and blocks his way.

The raging lorry driver climbs out - first stopping to put his shoes on properly - and storms towards the HGV

The footage captures him banging angrily on the door and swearing as he tries to get in before breaking the windscreen wipers.

The HGV driver, who posted the clip on Idiot UK Drivers Exposed is now calling for the man to be sacked following his shocking behaviour.

He wrote online: 'As i went up the slip road for the toll TAG lane i had my right hand indicator on to move over to the far right hand lane

'As i looked back this idiot was indicating as i was right on top of him i could not stop which he was aggrieved about and blasted his horn and as you will see in the video the rest is history.

'I did reported it to Staffordshire police who told me Greater Manchester Police would have to take a statement as i live in Manchester but, that was two weeks ago so this is why the video is now on here.

'If the driver new he was in the wrong lane he could of gone to any of the toll booths and pressed the intercom and told the operator the number on his tag' (sic).

Most online commentators also blame the lorry - 'A master c**kwomble in his natural habitat. Just because you are indicating and driving a huge heavy vehicle, does not mean you have right of way! Bully boy, plain and simple.'

Another writes: 'If you need to get out of your vehicle at any time ever...... for whatever reason.... to have a rant at anther driver...... being out in public is not for you. '

But a few do criticise the van filming: 'Right so you were behind him. You had a toll coming up and you floored it. You were playing the have to beat the lorry game. So sorry. No bloody sympathy.'

The identity of the two drivers is not known.
