This is the moment a bus driver started arguing with a motorist and passers-by after he blocked in a car that was parked at his stop.

The driver of the 93 service in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, said he was forced to stop in front of the car as he waited for his departure time because the car had been left on the double yellow lines.

The bus driver, who has not been named, captured the moment he was confronted by an angry passer-by and the driver of the car, who claimed her child was trapped in the vehicle.

The four-minute clip, which was shared on website Idiot UK Drivers Exposed, also shows other bystanders stopping to join in as the bus driver stands his ground.

In the video, one passer-by wearing sunglasses can be heard telling the bus driver he will make sure his 'career is jeopardised' and he is messing with a 'highly trained professional'.

He said: 'I have to tell you three times. One, I am a trained fighter, two, I am a trained fighter, three, I am a trained fighter. So if you put one finger on me mate I am going to wipe the floor with you.

'People like you need to get a real job and stop bullying people.'

The female car driver can also be seen shouting at the bus driver, claiming her child is stuck inside. She is heard saying she will 'report him for abuse' before dashing back to her vehicle.

A message from the driver on Facebook said: 'I approached the bus stop and there was a car parked up in the middle of it with no driver inside and in sight.

'I pulled in as much as I could but my part of my bus was blocking that car. I had four to five minutes before my departure, so I switched the engine off and minded my own business.

'I didn't even notice when the car owner came back and instead of asking me politely to let her out she started beeping at me so at this point I politely explained that I can't leave my terminus early and that she shouldn't be parked there anyway.

'A moment later this bloke turned up recording me on his iPhone and talking a lot, wouldn't even let me say too much as he kept talking and shouting.'

The video has since been watched by more than 300,000 people and has been shared more than 2,200 times on Facebook.

A spokesman from bus service providers FirstGroup said: 'Bus services provide connections for customers across Greater Manchester and it's vital that stopping points are kept clear for the safety of bus passengers and other road users.

'In recent years First and local authorities have invested heavily to improve bus stop access for customers including the use of low floor, kneeling buses - which many people now rely on.

'Our bus drivers therefore need the support of the public to keep bus stops clear for customers particularly those with mobility difficulties.
