The attacker was white, around 5ft10ins tall

A spokesman for Humberside Police said: "This attack appears to have been unprovoked and very frightening.
Im sure that the Blue Subaru driver was in the wrong, but there is always some form of provocation involved in Road Rage incidents.

What would turn out to be even more frightening would be if it was all made up and the bloke chose a Blue Subaru as a logical 'thug' car.

I bet he over took carefully and was flashed as many of have been but decided to stop and have a word with him !

I cant work out how the 306 flashed him from behind and then was chased ? and as mentioned was on the over taking side when the "bar" appeared.

Default smells like *##*!

there are always two sides to all dis-agreements. some local newspapers no matter how well respected do print cack on occasion.
i get flashed all the time up here when overtaking. not that i'm a yob or a dangerous driver. i will never ever pull out to overtake unless i'm absolutley certain that there is ample space to get back into the line of traffic. i will never barge my way in by making other car use their brakes. yet some folk still flash me.
you should always let faster drivers overtake. if the dude in the clip had allowed himself to be overtaken or pulled over, none of his experience would have transpired! there are signs eveywhere!
"let faster drivers overtake" "frustration causes accidents"
