The alleged attacker's car was boxed in by witnesses, preventing him from leaving.

Police said the incident was sparked after an attempted merge involving the cars erupted into dangerous driving across multiple lanes.

The alleged attacker was charged with grievous bodily harm and reckless driving.

He did not apply for bail in court yesterday.
