Extreme Road Rage Incident with a Range Rover Plowing through a Biker Group

It may sound like the script of a Luc Besson action movie, but the incident in the video after the jump is truly horrific. The driver of a Range Rover literally plowed through a group of motorcyclist on the West Side Highway in New York.

According to the footage, it appears that the Range Rover accidentally bumped in the rear wheel of one of the bikers. Small surprise to see this incident growing into an extreme road rage, knowing how the behavior of all people change when assembled in large groups.

However, what happened is really frightening, as the bikers show a rather aggressive behavior towards the Range Rover driver. As he stopped, several riders appear to attack the man's car. According to the police, he was driving with his wife and child and reportedly feared for his and their safety. So he hit the gas and drive straight through the bikers, making a crazy getaway.

As things could not end here, many riders gave chase and pursued him to upper Manhattan, where he had nowhere to go because of the stopped traffic on W. 178th St. near Wadsworth Ave. It is here where other bikers used their helmets to smash the windows of the Range Rover, as you can see in the video.

The man in his 30s was admitted to the hospital with cuts and bruises, as police sources quoted by NY Daily News claim the driver was beaten and received facial wounds. Police reports that no other bikers were hurt.

What's also weird is how did the Range Rover get in the middle of the riders in the first place. We've seen one or two fellows who would not drive behind a large bike assembly, and such scenarios always ended in a bad way.

No arrests have been made so far and a police investigation is underway. We'll bring you news on this sad incident, as we believe there will be a heap of law suits filed quite soon.
