Road Rage Rumble on the M5: Workers and Driver Brawl in Outer Lane
Violent Clash Shocks Motorists
A violent road rage fight broke out in the outside lane of the M5 when a banksman road worker and a black VW driver launched into punches – right in the middle of the motorway. The drama began after the VW driver switched lanes, aiming for faster-moving traffic. This move enraged the road worker, sparking a heated confrontation that quickly turned physical. A shocking video shows the pair slugging it out as cars whizzed past.
Traffic Chaos and Dangerous Scene
The brawl caused serious chaos, forcing other drivers to brake sharply or swerve to avoid the fight. Shocked motorists voiced concerns over the reckless and dangerous behaviour on one of the UK’s fastest roads, calling the incident “completely unacceptable.”
Police Launch Probe
The authorities have jumped into action, reviewing dashcam and mobile phone footage to track down the culprits. A Highways Agency spokesperson slammed the brawl:
“This was an extremely dangerous incident. Fighting on a live motorway not only endangers those involved but also puts other road users at serious risk.”
Witnesses Urgently Needed
Police are appealing to anyone who saw the fight or has footage to get in touch. Witnesses can call 101 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously. This is a developing story – stay tuned for updates as the investigation continues.
