This shocking footage shows an unbelievably dangerous petty spat played out between a lorry driver and motorist as they jostled for lane position on the M5 last August. Unfortunately, the Citroen driver deemed the best way to teach the trucker a lesson was to slam his breaks on in front of the HGV. Not only was the driver putting his life on the line, but also that of his wife in the passenger seat and other road users who could have been caught in the ensuing carnage. The two vehicles avoided a collision by a matter of inches – as shown in chilling dash-cam footage from the truck – and the Citroen driver later admitted a count of dangerous driving after being shown the footage. He was ordered to carry out 100 hours of unpaid work, handed a 12-month drive ban and left with a £145 bill for court costs. He must also re-take his driving test.
