Brutal footage shows two male drivers exchanging blows at the busy intersection while horrified onlookers beep their horns.

One of the men, understood to be a freight truck driver, can be seen raining blows on a shirtless man, and is only stopped when a bystander physically restrains him.

The truck driver returns to his vehicle before the other man, believed to be the driver of a ute, angrily approaches the truck window.
