A mother has described how a family day out at a country park ended in a “terrifying” road rage attack which left her children in tears.
The Liverpool family had just left an American classic car show at Tatton Park in Knutsford, Cheshire, when a man confronted her after she did not pull over to let him drive past.
Dashcam footage of the incident, at 15:00 BST on Saturday, shows him braking in front of the family’s car before climbing out of his van. He can then be heard swearing, before he rips the car door handle off.
Portable toilet firm Instant Loos and Event Hire has apologised and said its subcontractor would no longer work for them. Cheshire Police said it was investigating the incident.
The mother, Olivia, was in the car with her two six-month-old babies and a 13-year-old.
She told the she was “absolutely devastated by what my family went through”.
She added: “Before the man is shown on video he was speeding down the road and was irritated that we would not pull over to let him past.
“The video shows him repeatedly braking in front of our car before stopping, getting out, banging on my window, and breaking the door handle while trying to get into the vehicle.”
