Cape Town - This week delivered a number of strange videos ranging from the absolute bizarre to down right crazy.
In Gauteng a woman displayed a fair bit of rage because someone was filming her and in Cape Town a taxi driver met his match when a bakkie driver refused to give him/her any freedom to drive in a disorderly manner.
We also had international videos coming through our gates, but one that stood out was a Porsche 911 driver who lost control of his car on a very wet Nurburgring track.
In no particular order, here is our list of top videos of the week:
1 'Calm down!' Gauteng driver goes ballistic when confronted about driving
'CALM DOWN AND DRIVE!' These three Gauteng drivers handle a road-rage altercation without it escalating into violence. The exact details of the altercation is unknown but the video shows a female driver (red Fiat 500) arguing with the driver and uploader of this video.
The driver recording her rant can be heard saying that she was driving in the middle of the intersection. A third motorist arrives to defuse the situation. The incident could've turned violent as the uploader had pepper spray prepared. The driver's daughter can be heard saying: "what does that spray do?"
