"Road rage!"

In the 53-second clip, posted on Tuesday, 16 July, the men go head-to-head after exiting the cars.

Fists flew in the ensuing moments, one taking the brunt of the punishment. He is bundled to the ground twice as his opponent unleashes a flurry of blows.

He trails back to his charcoal grey Toyota Etios hatchback afterwards, but not before recovering his shoe after it slipped off his foot in the brawl as the other motorists caught in the jam caused by the pair's spat look on.

His challenger, driving a blue BMW sedan, also walks off to get into his car without further incident despite the two appearing to exchange some words.

Captivated locals chirp online

The incident seemed to grip chirpy locals on the timeline, who had plenty of observations.
