THIS is the shocking moment a bloodied driver smashes up a car with a bat before being rammed out the way by an “idiot” motorist.
Explosive footage captured the enraged bloke approaching a white Nissan in the middle of the road before unloading on the driver’s side window.
The motorist, identified as Mike Chaltry, says he was left fuming after being cut off on a downtown Milwaukee freeway – sparking a heated reaction.
Chaltry asserts that the erratic driving nearly led him to collide with the other vehicle’s bumper, prompting him to pull over to confront the other driver.
But Chaltry says he was savagely punched in the face through the car window seconds when he stopped.
This left him with a bloody and broken nose.
As the pair followed each other off the freeway they came to a head at a set of traffic lights as a heated shouting match commenced.
The video picks just as the roadside chaos unfolds as Chaltry goes up to the man’s car.
As claret continued to pour down his face, Chaltry looked to get his revenge as he brandished a bat and started to attack the Nissan.
The dramatic footage showed the blood-soaked driver violently swinging at the windows and destroying a wing mirror.
As the battering continues, the Nissan driver quickly backs up – appearing to hit the person behind him who films the altercation.
The motorist then angles the car towards Chaltry and puts his foot down.
His acceleration knocks Chaltry off his feet and sends his flying into another car in the lane across who is stopped at a traffic light.
The move leaves Chaltry pinned between both cars as he wrestles to escape by continuing to swing at the window.
After a few clean hits and a badly smashed up passenger door, the Nissan driver finally pulls away.
However, with the traffic lights still red, he is compelled to wait at the intersection, allowing Chaltry to run over and deliver a final powerful blow that completely shatters one of the rear windows.
Reflecting on the chaotic incident, Chaltry told WISN 12 News that he dislikes being labeled as the “face of road rage” in Milwaukee, due to aspects of the event that the video fails to reveal.
He said: “I’m not the one who started it. I mean, he was driving like an idiot.
“He sucker punched me through the window of my car and broke my nose – I got stitches.
“He put my life in danger three times. When he hit me on the highway, when he punched me in the head and when he tried hitting me with his car.
“There’s no need for that. I just don’t get it. I was angry, but I had good reason to be angry. He didn’t.”
Cops confirmed they have since arrested the Nissan driver for suspected battery.
He was also caught and handed citations for driving without insurance or registration papers.
Due to his role in the row, Chaltry faces possible charges for disorderly conduct and criminal damage to property.
It comes after his case was referred to the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office this week.
