Arpad Levente Jeddi can be heard shouting as he swerved his truck along the side of a road where the migrants were gathered, sending them scattering.

The trucker got dangerously close to hitting the migrants, who dodged out of his way just in time. He was angry after some of the crowd threw missiles at his vehicle

At one point, he even threatened to stab someone if they try to got onto his truck.

Jeddi briefly became well-known after the dashcam video was uploaded onto YouTube last year and racked up more than four million views.

Now prosecutors in Hungary are calling for him to be given a suspended jail sentence.

They also want him to receive a lengthy driving ban when the dangerous driving case comes to court.

Jeddi was sacked soon after the video first emerged last year, but he has since been hired by another transport firm.

The trucker has angrily defended his actions on social media, saying: 'They haven't understood that I didn't have a chance to respect traffic rules.'

He added: 'The reason was I was a victim of an open attack, public vandalism. Nobody was hurt and nothing was damaged.'
