Wild scenes as a Mercedes driver and a mullet-haired motorist throw punches during road rage brawl on the Gold Coast

Wild footage has captured the moment a Mercedes driver and a man wearing a mullet started fighting in the middle of a busy Gold Coast highway.

The bizarre road rage incident was filmed at an intersection near Somerset Drive, in Mudgeeraba, at 3.30pm on Christmas Eve.

In the video, the two men are seen getting out of their car at a traffic light after the man with the mullet overtook and pulled out in front of the Mercedes.

After one of the men pushed the other in the chest, the two exchanged punches and kicks before the Mercedes driver was thrown against his car.

Drivers traveling behind the pair were brought to a halt as the men spun in circles in an attempt to break free from the other’s grasp.

The men continued to jostle each other for more than a minute until a third man – wearing a Street Fighter T-shirt – intervened and forced them back to their vehicles.

The mullet-haired motorist was seen casually jogging back to his car and driving away, allowing traffic flow to resume on the busy highway.

Viewers saw the funnier side of the altercation.

“They wanted to cuddle more than fight,” one person wrote.

Others praised the bystander who was forced to break up the fight.

“Good for him for breaking it off, but he could have been the victim there,” a second person commented.

“Lmao at the street fighter t-shirt,” a third wrote.

A Queensland Police spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia police had not been notified of the incident.

“Anyone with information about this incident is encouraged to report it to police,” the spokesperson said.
