ARCHIVED - VIDEO: Road rage Brit forces other car to stop on busy N-332 Torrevieja and attacks the driver
The shocking footage was captured on one of the busiest and conflictive stretches of the N-332 in Alicante province
Disturbing footage of a road rage incident on a saturated stretch of the N-332 in Torrevieja has gone viral.
The clip shows a British driver recklessly overtake another car, despite a double continuous line, and brake suddenly, forcing the now-tailing car and all the traffic behind, to stop.
The furious driver then jumps out of his car, wrenches open the other motorist's driver-side door and appears to attack him before stomping back to his own vehicle and driving off.

It's not clear what caused such an aggressive reaction, but the video shared on SocialDrive's Twitter profile has been viewed 450,300 times since it was shared on Tuesday April 25.
The N-332 is a notoriously busy road connecting Torrevieja with Guardamar, Orihuela Costa and the Region of Murcia, and temper got the better of this particular motorist at the Torrevieja ring road stretch, a "black spot" some 8km long.
There are traffic jams almost every day of the year on the N-332, and as the high season approaches, the traffic density on this coastal road, with only one lane in each direction, increases.
The N-332 is used by, on average, 40,000 vehicles daily and has been awaiting dual carriageway widening for more than a decade.
Last week, a 23-year-old British man was charged with stabbing a Spanish teenager to death in a road rage attack near Estepona on the Costa del Sol in November 202.
