Listen to this articleFrightening video captured the second a Tesla driver stopped to violently assault a automotive on the two Freeway throughout a highway rage incident in Glendale.
In the video, the Tesla driver is seen slamming on his brakes, hopping out of his SUV, operating towards the sufferer’s automotive and putting it a number of instances with a big pipe.
This incident marks the most recent in a collection of comparable highway rage assaults involving the same violent driver.
The most up-to-date assault occurred Wednesday morning alongside the southbound lanes of the two Freeway simply after 8 a.m. close to the York exit.
After the suspect is seen violently attacking the sufferer’s truck, he hops back into his automotive and drives away.
“Initially you think, ‘Should I pin him to the wall with my car?’ ‘Should I run him down?’ ‘What should I do?’ recalled the victim, who wished to remain anonymous. “And I tried to stay focused and think, ‘I don’t want to go from victim to criminal in an instant.’”
The sufferer says he first began recording after watching the Tesla driving erratically and focusing on a automobile on the freeway.
Video captures the Tesla stopping subsequent to a white sedan on an exit shoulder. The suspect is seen hopping out of his automotive and sprinting in direction of the sedan, attempting to strike it before the sedan rapidly drives off.
“He gets back to his car and he notices that I’m taping him, so he follows me,” the sufferer explains. “At some point, he cuts me off, slams the brakes and starts beating on my car.”

Similar movies have been circulating on social media which seem to show the same Tesla driver speeding towards one other automobile, armed with a pipe in hand.
“Maybe it’s a pattern, maybe he was just having a bad day, I don’t know,” said the sufferer. “Who can say what was going on in his head?”
The California Highway Patrol is investigating the assaults, though monitoring down the suspect could show tough as the motive force had eliminated his license plates.
The sufferer is hoping different witnesses could have movies they might provide to the CHP so the suspect could be caught quickly.
“I think it should be important for all of us, for this guy to get off the streets,” said the sufferer. “We can’t have people going around banging on people’s cars. That’s not the society I want to live in.”
