LONDON -- Normally when you think of road rage, you might imagine a bit of shouting or sweary gesturing through a car window.

The video below, however, is on a whole different level.

Filmed on St Margret's Way in Leicester, UK, and shared to Twitter by Amy Woodfield, the clip shows an enraged man kneeling on the bonnet of a car.

As the driver rolls slowly forward (presumably in an effort to escape the angry individual straddling his vehicle), the man on the bonnet starts punching his windshield over and over again.

It's unclear what prompted the man in the video to lose his temper; the only clue is when the person filming says: "Oh, he's got out of his car, then."

So presumably it was some kind of driving-related disagreement that really, really escalated.

Later in the evening, Woodfield confirmed she'd been in touch with the police.

Mashable has reached out to Woodfield and we will update this article if we receive a response.
