Exactly. The taxi driver could have backed up a bit even if he thought that there was already enough space. It appears he doesn't like women driving large vehicles. The other bloke needs some help if he's prepared to grab someone by the throat like that over something so minor.

What we dont see is what the taxi driver was doing before the guy came out of his hose - I bet there is a lot more to this...

Yes my thought was it is edited to remove his previous ranting at the poor lady trying to park, but I guess we will never know

It just bugs the hell out of me that the likes of the DM seem to call every 4x4 a Chelsea Tractor and assumes that no one has the right to be in one for any reason. If it was a Prius would it be a story for them?

If it was a Prius, the story would be "thug taxi driver scares lady driver who was quietly trying to park"... Whistle Rolling with laughter

The Mail has been having a dig at "Chelsea Tractors" for years. Which I fund a little surprising.
