The driver of the Commodore could be heard screaming “come on” to the man in the Volkswagen, urging him to get out while he punched him a second time.

The driver of the Volkswagen – who was holding up traffic at a green light – then made an illegal U-turn around the Commodore before driving over a median strip to then pull up in front of its bonnet.
