A dangerous driver who stopped on the M40 and got out of his truck to shout at another motorist has been banned for three years.

The unnamed 38-year-old from Kent stopped in the outside land on the northbound carriageway near Warwick in February.

Police said it was "remarkable" nobody was injured or killed due to the incident.

The driver of the other vehicle recorded the incident on his dash cam and submitted to the footage to Warwickshire Police's Operation Snap, where it was reviewed by a road safety officer.

At Coventry Magistrates Court, the driver was given a three year driving ban, 250 hours of unpaid supervised work and a 20 day Rehabilitation Activity Requirement.

Warwickshire Police Inspector Dave Valente said: "Whilst extremely rare, this case highlights the serious consequences of allowing yourself to get angry behind the wheel, putting other people's lives at risk.

"Op Snap allows drivers to submit moving footage of poor driving, without taking matters into their own hands. Those whose driving falls below the standards expected can and will be held to account.

"By working together in this way, we can help reduce death and injury on our roads."
