Wild moment road rage driver puts on boxing gloves in row over driving ‘too slow’ and says ‘do you want to try it on?’

AN ANGRY motorist is going viral after taking out a pair of boxing gloves and asking another driver 'do you want to try it on?'

A two-minute clip of the displeased driver, who is already being compared to notorious road rage legend 'Ronnie Pickering', has racked up more than 1.2million views on X, formerly Twitter.

The man, who appears to be in his 50s, can be seen taking a mismatched pair of boxing gloves out of his car boot before knocking on the window of another driver, who is filming the encounter.

He then asks the cameraman 'what's your problem?' and the pair continue to argue about whether the glove-wielding motorist was going 'too slow'.

The man filming the encounter, who remains in the driver seat of his vehicle, accuses him of going 40mph in a 20mph zone.

'That's not the target, that's the limit!' says the other driver, while the cameraman laughs and mocks him for bringing out a pair of boxing gloves for the dispute.

The man filming the spat, who continually laughs throughout the clip, then tells the other motorist that his boxing gloves do not match.

The alleged 'slow driver' then tells him 'the other pair's in the car - do you want a pair of gloves?'

Another version of the video which appears on TikTok has raked in more than 100 comments.

One amused viewer wrote: 'I bet my money on the old guy. Let's go!'

Another said: 'Bless him. Friendliest road rage ever.'

A third wrote: 'This can't be real but I wish it was.'

Another said: 'Wanted to settle it old school way with his hands.'

The clip has been compared to the viral video of Ronnie Pickering, who shot to fame in 2015 after telling another road user: 'Do you know who I am? I'm Ronnie Pickering.'

The man in the new video has also been likened to Gordon Hill, otherwise known as the 'Wealdstone Raider', who went viral after being filmed heckling supporters Whitehawk F.C.

The TikTok version of the new clip, which is two minutes longer than the one on X, also shows the angry driver offering one of his boxing gloves to the man filming the encounter.

He then asks 'are you prepared to get out your car?' before the cameraman starts winding up his window.

'Obviously not,' says the angry driver.

The X user who uploaded the clip wrote: 'It’s like Ronnie Pickering has mated with the Wealdstone Raider.'
