New Yorkers have gone crazy over a woman who blocked traffic on the city’s iconic Brooklyn Bridge over a bumper incident.
A chaotic clip shows the roadside confrontation between the female driver and several other motorists who get out of their cars to yell at her.
She parks in the middle of the busy downtown bridge that connects Brooklyn to Manhattan, after reportedly being scraped by the vehicle behind.
The 1 minute 30 minute video begins as the man filming walks past a line of cars, some of them honking their horns in frustration, while two more men protest at the roadside.
He marches to the navy blue car at the front of the line and causes the blockade, which has scratches on the left flank, venting his grievances in an expletive-laden diatribe.

“Look at this,” the man tells viewers as he approaches the woman who is in the driver’s seat, wearing glasses, a black vest and silver earrings and holding up her phone as she explains her situation over the speaker to police of the NYPD.
“Everyone is trying to tell her to just move, but she won’t,” says the angry motorist.
Filming the car’s slightly scratched side, he rants, “There’s no damage – there’s hardly any damage!”
Another person is heard screaming ‘she needs to move!!!!’ off-camera.
Meanwhile, a third man with a strong New York accent crouches over to the motorist’s window to talk to her directly.
“Just pull over so the rest of the traffic can pass,” he pleads. “You’re breaking the law – there’s no injury.”
The woman retaliates and says to him: “The police tell me —” but he cuts him off.
“You are on speaker, ma’am,” she tells the police. “I’m being harassed by three different men now.”
The New York man yells, “She’s on Brooklyn Bridge and she refuses to stop!”
“As you speak, she has room to stop!!!”
The woman hits back as he apparently showers her with saliva by yelling close to her face.
“You spit at me too,” she says. “While you talk, you spit at me.”

The filming man briefly switches to the front camera and remarks: ‘Only in Brooklyn’.
“This is going on the internet, by the way,” he tells the driver, who replies, “I don’t care.”
The man who caused the mayhem by reportedly crashing into the side of the woman’s car and leaving the scratches remains safe in his vehicle the entire time, staring straight ahead while wearing a seatbelt and a Covid face mask .
Pointing the camera at him, the man filming yells, “And this f***ing dude is a fucking idiot for chasing some asshole in the beginning – what the F***!”
People on Reddit also slammed the motorist in the comments section of the video.
One person said, “Jesus lady, how hard is it to pull over?” while another joked, “The police can’t get there because they can’t get through traffic.”
Others called her a “Karen” and an “asshole” for her roadblock antics.
