Hmmm, Murd0c is right. I'm posting the road rage video along with the news article below.
Enjoy!
VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – A video showing an apparent road rage incident in Vancouver is getting plenty of reaction online.
In the video, shot on Terminal Avenue, a man gets out of his car and approaches the driver-side door of the car in front of him, placing his hand through the window, appearing to strike the driver.
Other drivers in the area are quick to react, with a man in a truck beside the incident stepping outside to address the apparent road rager and taking a picture of his licence plate.
The description line in the video is “Road Rage instant Karma.” That’s because right across the street, members of the Vancouver Police Department are seen dealing with another incident, and are alerted to this situation.
The man who appears to have punched the other driver soon finds himself up against the witnesses trucks and in handcuffs.
Vancouver Police have confirmed they arrested and released a 26-year-old man following an incident at Terminal and Thornton on February 12th.
Assault charges are pending

Damn, if I drove a Pontiac Wave I'd be an angry sack of shit too...
That being said, good to see some wannabe tough guy get his just desserts. That section of road is well known for people who treat it like a highway and swerve around, cutting people off etc.... people just need to relax lol.
Lol this video blew up after I posted it on my twitter last night. 8k views in 1 night.

Conspiracy theories???
if you watch the bbc or cnn thats all you'll get about this story...all the reports are saying "this is what Russia said happened, but we all know it's propaganda and he was killed because of Putin..." and then you'll get a segment on how reporters are fleeing for their lives from Russia because they've been marked for death by the Kremlin (more conspiracy)
"If you were 26 and had to drive a Suzuki Aerio 4-door sedan, you’d probably be pretty mad at the world too. It’s no justification for punching people… other than yourself I guess." -News1130 comment section
The road rage incident has really picked up steam. Watched it here a couple hours ago, then heard it on the news right when I jumped in my car.
As always, be mindful that everyone has a video camera and if you're actin' a fool chances are you'll be publicly shamed around the world for it. Plus, video is evidence if said actions are illegal.
As for the Russian news, well; John Oliver is the man!
-really hoping that the owner of the dash cam sent the video to the cops.

Yeah - I totally agree. I don't believe that one day, completely out of the blue somebody gets out of the car and punches another driver .... this is probably one in a long list of idiotic things this individual has done and if the police can use the video to pin him to the wall then they should.
