A cyclist caused £1,000 of damage to a car after "becoming angry" over the way the vehicle was driven past him and two other bike riders.

Surrey Police have now released an image of a man they want to speak to in connection with the road rage incident in Staines last month.

It happened on Sunday August 16 at around 12.15pm, on the A308 Windsor Road approaching the roundabout junction with the A30 Egham bypass.

The car, an Audi Q5, overtook three cyclists as it was being driven along the A308 towards the M25.

Police said that when the driver stopped at the roundabout one of the cyclists became verbally abusive, punching the window, side panel and wing mirror several times.

He was described as white, around 6ft tall, of medium build and wearing a white and yellow lycra cycling outfit and a yellow and white helmet.

PC Mike Swankie said: "It appears that the cyclist has become angry at the way the car overtook him, but this certainly does not warrant causing damage to the car.

"The driver's teenage daughter was in the car at the time and this incident has understandably caused them both a considerable amount of distress.

"We have released an image of a man we would like to speak to in connection with this incident.

"If anyone recognises him, witnessed the incident, or has any other information which could assist the investigation, please come forward as soon as possible.”
