New footage of a road rage fight that brought traffic on Glasgow’s[1] Kingston Bridge [2]to a standstill yesterday has emerged.
Two woman were videoed [3]brawling on the M8 at around 11.15am on Friday as shocked drivers watched on. We reported yesterday how the pair were rolling about the ground with each other on the eastbound carriageway.
In the original footage, a white Porsche can be seen blocking one lane as two people struggle with each other in front of a lorry as vehicles queue behind.
Traffic can be seen passing freely on the slip road to the city centre as a truck blows its horn to try and get the pair to break apart.
Now more footage of the fight has emerged which appears to show two women punching each other as they grapple in the middle of the road. In the second clip, which appears to have been filmed from a car behind, a woman in a purple top can be seen wrestling with a second woman in black before being thrown to the ground, reports Glasgow Live[4].
The woman in black can then be seen getting on top of the other before raining punches down.
An eyewitness said yesterday that the fight had been started following a traffic dispute. They said: “The Porsche was behind the Fiesta and they cut in front.
“Porsche driver got out the car then the Fiesta driver got out car and then they were rolling about the motorway. Everything came to a standstill.
“A van driver got out and broke them apart. The Fiesta driver jumped in their car and drove off.”
Police are believed to have attended the scene after receiving reports of two people fighting.
