This is the moment four men from Greater Manchester attacked a van after it chasing and blocking it in on a busy dual carriageway. The group were all in a BMW which began aggressively pursuing the small white van along the A55 in North Wales.
The group, one of whom was clutching a metal bar, threw items at the van and even got out in the middle of the road to kick as its driver desperately tried to get away.
The video, recorded by a person in a vehicle behind the drama, was played as the men were sentenced with two being jailed and two being suspended sentences.

Caernarfon Crown Court heard that BMW driver Ali Najam, 26, and his passengers Said Sadat, Pedro Bergantim and Demi Ward were in North Wales in early September last year reports North Wales Live.
They had an "altercation" with the van driver Sean Powell, and claimed he had driven over the foot of one of the defendants a judge was told.
The footage, which was played in court, shows the black BMW stopping on the westbound carriageway of the A55 North Wales Expressway four times. The occupants throw items including a plastic water bottle and one carries a metal bar, while another kicks the van.
Eventually, Mr Powell drove off and left the A55 at the Black Cat roundabout near the Glan Conwy Corner. The BMW was followed to the Great Orme and police arrested the driver and three passengers.
Najam, of Blackberry Lane, Brinnington, Stockport, was jailed for 22 months for affray and 15 months concurrent for dangerous driving.
Sadat, 23, of Tamworth Street, Oldham, was jailed for 18 months for affray.
Bergantim, 22, of Taunton Road, Ashton under Lyne, and Demi Ward, 21, of Sandstone Way, Chorlton, were given suspended sentences for affray.
On Monday, prosecutor Richard Edwards had said that the nature of the incident had been "terrifying" for Mr Powell. The judge His Honour Timothy Petts called it a "prolonged, persistent and deliberate course of very bad driving".
He also told the defendants it had been an "astonishing and appalling" incident.
