Raging dad ploughs his BMW into vehicle behind after it crashed into him

An angry dad whose car was rear-ended by an young man got his revenge by reversing his BMW into the car more than half a dozen times.

The violent scenes played out on the streets of west Taiwan, where the white Toyota Corolla was found to be illegally parked in the middle of the street.

The BMW driver, 40-year-old Mr Guo who was with his wife and five-year-old child, sounded the car horn to try make the Toyota move, but its irate driver, Mr Peng crashed into him and fled the scene.

The furious Mr Guo made his wife and child get out of the car and gave chase in his old BMW 7 Series , quickly catching up with Mr Peng and slamming his car into the Toyota.

Mobile phone footage taken at the scene shows Mr Guo reversing his car and crashing into the Toyota a number of times, causing serious damage to the front end of the white car.

Eye-witnesses said Mr Peng and a few of his friends later exited the Toyota with bats and sticks and whacked the BMW, but Mr Guo locked his doors and windows and remained inside the vehicle, which he continued to drive into the already driver-less Toyota.

After local residents called police, Mr Peng and his friends ran into a nearby bakery to hide and were later arrested by police.

Mr Guo was also detained as part of the investigation, and both parties were found to have broken the law.

Charged with illegally occupying the road and double parking, Mr Peng was fined 3,600 Taiwanese dollars (about £93).

Mr Guo, who claimed he was exercising self-defence after Mr Peng hit his car and frightened his wife and child, was fined a total of 25,800 TWD (about £665).
