Mum allegedly tried to run man down in road rage drama

Footage capturing the moment a Queensland mum of two allegedly used her car to run a man down following a road rage incident can be revealed for the first time since a driver charged over the incident was granted bail.

Vaey Montanna-Freya Varmora, of Mackay, is charged with attempted murder, which lawyers have said she planned to contest.

The video, a version of which was shared on social media and obtained by this publication, was played in Mackay Magistrates Court during a bail bid for Ms Varmora.

It appears to show Ms Varmora allegedly behind the wheel of a vehicle driven at a man, striking him and forcing him to roll over the bonnet.

The incident allegedly occurred about 5.15pm on January 5, 2025 on Goldsmith St.

Police allege Ms Varmora had cut off another driver at a roundabout and that other driver had become angry and tailgated the 27-year-old mum of two, who slammed on her brakes causing the two vehicles to collide.

This allegedly resulted in a verbal clash between Ms Varmora and the man and a woman, the driver of another vehicle and its passenger.
