Furious road rage driver's car rolls down hill as she confronts lorry driver

A furious woman drove her car along a footpath and then left it to roll downhill after getting out of her vehicle to confront a lorry driver.

Scott McCready, from Merseyside, said his friend filmed the road rage incident which took place at 10am yesterday.

The 36-year-old, who owns a plant hire firm in Birkenhead, was driving a Mercedes 26-tonne vehicle in Bromborough, Wirral.

But the woman flew into a fit of rage after the lorry driver turned left into a side road, the Liverpool Echo reported .

Footage of the incident shows a black Vauxhall drive on the pavement of the narrow street and overtake his lorry.

It then slows down and stops as the driver leaves her vehicle with the car door still open and storms up to his window.

Dressed in an aqua jacket, she begins to shout at him but he quickly interrupts her and says: "Put your handbrake on love."

The woman then panics, turns around and runs after her car, which is seen rolling down the street.

She then returns to berate him and says: "You know when you put your finger up to me? You were on camera."

Scott replies: "Did you not put it up to me?"

In front of the mobile phone, she then says: "I'm not on camera, you are."

A voice then says: "You are now you f***ing divvy."

Scott said: "It's quite funny really that her car started rolling downhill.

"But when you watch it several times you start to see a bit more of a serious side to it.

"It was a potentially dangerous manoeuvre to overtake on the pavement and she's lucky that nobody is hurt."

Dozens of Twitter users commented underneath the video.

Jamie Pav wrote: "Can’t believe you told her her car was rolling, I’d have just watched."

Sean Chriscole said: "I don't think there's anything more quintessentially British and in turn cringe than two people arguing over whose got whom on camera."
