The case involving a man facing charges for his actions during a road rage incident on Witkoppen Road, Fourways, in July has proved to be slow off the mark. Appearing in the court in Ferndale for the third time on 11 September, the accused, who is charged with common assault and malicious damage to property, waited two hours to be told that the case has been postponed to 7 October.
The road rage incident was filmed by an onlooker, and the video went viral on the internet (see previous article). In the video the man, who was the passenger of a Porsche, is seen kicking a Volkswagen’s side mirror until the driver winds down the window. He then reaches both hands into the Volkswagen and struggles with the driver.
He pulls an object out of the Volkswagen and throws it away. The driver of the Volkswagen later spoke to the media, saying he was punched in the face and his vehicle keys were thrown away.
