Canadian driver charged after ramming car head-on in terrifying road-rage incident: video

An Ontario man lost his cool on the snowy streets of Canada — ramming into another driver head-on and pushing him backward for several feet in a terrifying road-rage incident caught on dashboard camera.

The nightmare scenario played out on Dec. 30 at Highway 11 and Highway 65 in the town of Temiskaming Shores in the northern part of the province, according to CTV News.

A white Toyota Rav 4 can be seen on the dashcam footage ramming the front of the victim’s vehicle, pushing it backward as the terrified driver tells an emergency dispatcher he’s in danger of being pushed off a bridge.

“He’s going to try to run me into the bridge. I’m in danger right now,” the driver, James Turner, shakily tells the dispatcher over the phone in the clip. “[I’m] on the bridge, on the bridge!”

The 37-year-old aggressive driver continues to ram the victim’s car ff the bridge and back onto the highway until the man is pushed off the road, the shocking video shows.

Turner told CTV News that the scary ordeal began after he flashed his lights at the other driver, who had just swerved into oncoming traffic before swerving back into the correct lane. He said he wanted to signal to the driver to pay attention.

Instead, the Rav 4 driver pulled over to the side of the road, swung around and hit Turner’s car head-on — and keep going.

As Turner was slammed into the side of the bridge wall, he said, he saw his life flash before him.

“The bridge — it’s at least a 200-foot drop into a frozen, cold, icy water that’s very deadly at this time of year, as local people well know,” Turned told the local station. “So when you see him push me onto the bridge and slam me against the side, I was worried. I wondered if my legacy was good — whether or not I’d been kind enough, whether or not I was a good example to my nephews and nieces and my future stepchildren.”

When Ontario provincial police officers arrived, the driver had already fled — but cops were able to catch up.

After several attempts to pull him over, the reckless driver was finally stopped with road spikes and arrested on the spot, police said.

“After the collision, the OPP made several attempts to stop the vehicle which resulted in the deployment of a spike belt. The suspect vehicle was stopped, and the driver was arrested,” the Temiskaming Ontario Provincial Police said in a statement, according to CTV News.

Neither driver was injured, but one OPP officer was hurt during the arrest, the outlet reported.

The road rage suspect has been hit with a litany of charges including two counts of assaulting police with a weapon — in this case, the vehicle — assaulting police causing bodily harm, criminal harassment, resisting arrest, assault with a weapon, dangerous driving, and fleeing police.
