A road rage driver was caught stopping his vehicle in the fast lane of a dual carriageway and jumping out to confront another motorist.
The dangerous incident happened in the middle of road works in the lead up to the Forth Road Bridge near Edinburgh, Scotland.
A man in a black 4x4 Jeep CRD was caught on dash cam undertaking another car, which was driving at the 40mph speed limit on the A90.The silver van fitted with the dash cam can heard holding the horn down as the Jeep comes within inches of hitting the vehicle.
When the Jeep driver swerves back into the fast lane, he brakes dangerously and gets out to confront the van driver.
The van driver can be heard telling the owner of the Jeep: 'Are you trying to cause an accident? 'It's a 40mph speed limit, do you understand that? Get in your car and move. Before I phone the police. The average is 40 you clown.'
When he realises he is being filmed, the driver of the Jeep moves on.
The video, uploaded by 'kabulcowboy' was captioned: 'Just before the Forth Road Bridge 15:50 15/03/2017 . This clown nearly killed me... BOTH lanes are 40mph, there are no fast/slow/overtaking on this route.'
A spokesman for Scotland's Worst Drivers said: 'This driver's reckless manoeuvre had the potential to cause a serious collision, and to then stop and get out of his vehicle in the outside lane is just insane.
'I urge the Police to recognise the seriousness of this incident, and to trace the driver to address the offences committed.'
Construction work is currently on-going on the road as the new Queensferry Crossing is completed.
40mph average speed cameras are in operation along a five mile stretch of the A90 between Dunfermline and Dalmeny, Edinburgh.
