New Delhi: A  video of road rage incident in Bengaluru has been doing rounds on social media platforms. In the video, a man on a scooter can be seen attacking a car in which a couple and their three-year-old daughter were travelling. If reports are to be believed, the incident took place after the two-wheeler failed to overtake the hatchback.
