A SHOCKING driver was caught dangerously overtaking before slamming on the brakes, sticking his middle finger up and calling his fellow motorist a “son of a b***h”.
A driver known only as “Iryna” was cruising along a road in London when she was suddenly cut off by a silver Peugeot which overtook her on a corner leading under a bridge.
Immediately coming to a stop, the dangerous driver then launched a tirade of abuse abuse at Iryna before speeding off, for no apparent reason.
The footage shows Iryna driving along the road, slowing down as she approaches the corner leading below the low bridge.
However, her journey is interrupted by the Peugeot, which roars past on the wrong side of the road and swerves into the lane in front of Iryna, forcing her to come to a sudden stop.
Slamming the brakes and almost crashing into the death-wish driver, cars then approach on the other side of the road, revealing how close the motorist was to an accident.
The dangerous driver then receives a host of angry beeps of the horn from his fellow motorists, before slowly setting off again and crawling towards the bridge.
As he goes, the brazen driver sticks his fist out of the car and wildly gesticulates his middle finger towards Iryna in a shocking display of road rage.
He then curls his fingers into a loose fist and makes a further rude gesture before coming to a stop again below the bridge.
He then sticks his head out of his window and turns to face Iryna, calling her a “son of a b***h” before the rest of his monologue is cut off by angry horn beeping.
The disgruntled driver then pulls his head back into the car and hits the gas, flying off down the road, only to have to hit the brakes again as he approaches another corner.
Iryna took to social media on Thursday to share the shocking footage, writing: “UK drivers.”
The post received over 55,100 likes and more than 1,900 comments from users left stunned at the driver’s reckless behaviour.
One person wrote: “Why was he giving you hand gestures like it was your fault?”
Another said: “Heck, I wouldn’t have stopped to be honest. He deserves three points and an increased insurance policy.”
A third commented: “Don’t most cars have crash detection now that stops cars automatically? These scams aren’t going to work for much longer.”
A fourth added: “Well, well, well. I don’t know why people cut and erase the events prior to this behaviour.”
