Before the man has time to apologise, the encounter turns physical, with shocked drivers watching on as the pair scrap in the middle of the road.

In disbelief another driver gets out to break up the fight.

"Absolutely disgusting to be honest," the observer said.

"There were a few haymakers being thrown there, and the lady got hit in the ear."
