‘Hissy fit’: Furious tradie boots bucket at driver over request

A tradie has been filmed losing his cool at a driver after a simple request.

A tradie has been filmed losing his cool at a driver after appearing to block a narrow laneway.

The man from Western Australia is filmed kicking a bucket in the direction of a man, screaming, “I’m not f***ing moving it”, as his car and trailer are spread across the narrow suburban laneway.

It’s understood the disagreement took place earlier this month.

The driver, whose dashcam captured the tense stand-off, had exited his car.

The pair stand face-to-face as the tradie yells in the driver’s face.

The clip shared by Dashcam Owners Australia cuts off before any resolution is met, but only after a great deal of swearing and aggressive posturing from the tradie.

Online viewers praised the man’s composure. One said: “This bloke kept his cool like many others wouldn’t.”

Another called the tradie’s actions a petulant “hissy fit”.

One man questioned what led to the stand-off.

“Makes me wonder what the tall guy was doing beforehand. The short guy had nowhere else to park to unload at that building site,” he wrote.
