ROADRAGE is neither big nor clever. But one viral clip of a motorist’s unique take on revenge has drawn around 1.5 million hits, as more online viewers line up to berate dangerous drivers.

The clip, believed to have originated in Russia, shows a people carrier jostling for space on a single lane with another car who refuses to let him bully his way in front.

The people carrier overtakes several cars before pulling over to the side of the road and waiting for his rival to come past. When the two vehicles are side by side, the people carrier tears away, spraying a gigantic muddy puddle through the car’s open window.

Online commenters have been quick to wade in and point out who they think is to blame, but which ever side you take, it’s definitely enough to make you think twice about renting a car in Russia.
