A video has captured the moment a driver smashed up a van with his cricket bat in a shocking road rage attack caught on camera.
Dashcam footage, taken from a nearby vehicle on the residential street, shows a silver people carrier stopped at a junction. A van, also silver, had stopped at a right angle just a few yards in front.
The driver side door to the van was shut at the start of the 15-second clip before a fuming man emerged from the car a few seconds later. The enraged man was filmed racing to the boot of his car and grabbing a cricket bat.

He then raced across the road whacks the back of the silver vehicle as the van driver attempts to make a speedy getaway. The bloke was heard shouting in frustration after the row as the van pulls away.

Responding to the footage after it was posted online, one driver said: "If that was my van he hit I would have stopped and got out", while one wicket-minded social media user wrote: "That's LBW."
