He told The Sun Online: "I was just driving along and saw the fight, it looked like the driver had a weapon in his hand.

"It looked like a wrench or a spanner, something quite long and tall."

The Uber driver, wearing light blue trousers, could be seen waving his arms around with the passenger also throwing punches.

He said he pulled over but did not want to get involved in the attack.

He said: "It was just shocking behaviour.

"I don't want to jump to conclusions about who was at fault, and it could have been the passenger's fault, but if you are a professional driver, you shouldn't be fighting with passengers."

During the fight, a woman can be seen trying to get in between the men, stopping them from coming to blows.
