An irate furious British tourist allegedly punched a taxi driver in a road rage attack in Phuket, Thailand.
Dashcam footage shows a man named by police as Joseph Millward arguing with taxi driver Saroj Jakthong before sending him sprawling with a powerful sucker punch.
The muscled tourist follows up the shocking attack by targeting his companion, who appears to dodge the blow.
Jakthong, 39, immediately gets up and follows Millward to his black Ford pickup, but the British tourist drives away before he is able to confront him again.
It is believed that the Thai man honked his horn at Millward after the latter reportedly cut in front of his van on a busy road on April 6.
The two vehicles then slow down before the Brit parks up and storms out of his truck to square up to Jakthong.
‘I stepped out to talk politely, telling the foreigner that his driving was dangerous and asking him to be more careful,’ he said after the incident.
‘But he immediately punched me, knocking me down.
‘Fortunately, no other vehicles were passing by at that moment.’
The taxi driver underwent a medical examination to document his injuries and returned to the police station where he found the apologetic Brit waiting for him.
Despite begging for forgiveness, Jakthong insisted he will not rest until he feels justice has been done.
Police have now launched an investigation into the alleged assault after Saroj filed a report at the Phuket City Police Station.
