This is probably why you shouldn't punch a motorcyclist (or anyone for that matter)

A road rage incident which reportedly happened last Saturday in Yuma, Arizona, has been shared hundreds of thousands of times due to the aggression and subsequent backpedalling shown by the attacking driver.

The incident is pretty staggering to say the least.

A man gets out of his vehicle, enraged at an incident involving the motorcyclist who is filming from a helmet-mounted camera.

The man then proceeds to shove the motorcyclist’s girlfriend, who was sitting behind him.

At which point, said motorcyclist tries to reason with the driver, before a scuffle in which he quickly pins him to the ground.

They then have a conversation about how they have found themselves in this situation (begins with motorcyclist):

Dude, I did nothing to you?

You just broke the law.

I went in between you on a road?

Yep.

And you’re going to punch me and assault me for that?

Yep.

And you think that’s the right thing to do? How old are you? Shouldn’t you know by now that’s not what you do?

Silence.

You pushed my girlfriend? She weighs 100 f--king pounds!

She assaulted me!

No she did not. Guess what? I have you all on camera, so we’re gonna see.

And see we did.

According to the description provided in the video, the driver of the car reportedly broke his ankle when he went to ground, and a court date regarding the incident is described as pending.
