Man Challenges Black Amazon Driver to a Fight on the Road, Then the Unexpected Happened

A white local resident confronted a Black Amazon driver making deliveries, then came the twist no one saw coming.

In a wild case of what some folks call road rage, a white man took matters into his own hands when he used his pick-up truck to block a Black Amazon driver who was making deliveries on the road. But what happened next was probably more than he bargained for, and it was all caught on video.

Video of the dispute went viral on TikTok, showing a white local resident yelling, “Get out of the truck. Come on– I dare you to get out the f**king truck! I came here to tell you to f**king slow down!” It’s unclear what happened before the witness started to record, or exactly where the confrontation happened, but folks in the comments section speculated the man was enraged because kids were playing nearby or that the country road appeared too narrow for both trucks to pass by safely.

After telling the Amazon driver to “be a man” and threatening to report the Amazon employee to his workplace, the unidentified driver was unbothered and encouraged him to do so. Within seconds, the white man can be seen on the video walking up to the Black driver and swinging at him, knocking him to ground. The white man began to pummel the driver with punches, that is until backup no one saw coming came to the rescue.

A second man accompanying the Amazon driver, speculated to be his assistant or trainee, came out of the back of the truck and swung on the white man. One commenter online joked how the “second guy’s left hand jabs hit like my grandma’s whoopins’,” describing them as “sharp” and “sporadic” during his “flashbacks.”

Folks took to the comment section with their thoughts. “Helper did his job helped,” one person wrote. A second person joked, “Amazon needs to get drivers from Waffle House.” One person asked, “Are we Great yet ??? Are these the people who are going to make America Great Again?” Other comments included, “.50 cent raise well DESERVING for Mr. Helper,” “His helper understood the assignment,” and “Trump got yawl thinking that cause these laws passed yawl can do whatever… I THINK NOT!!!!”

It’s unclear whether any charges or arrests were made after the incident.
