The footage, captured on another motorist’s dash cam, shows a silver Corsa and gold Toyota Yaris stopped just before a roundabout in Pudsey.

At the start of the clip a man wearing a white t-shirt and sleeveless body warmer is set upon by two other men.
He manages to drive them back, while another man drags a woman out of the Yaris and pulls her onto the floor.
She gets back to her feet after her friend attacks the man who pulled her to the ground and shouts ‘help’ as the men chase and attack each other.
Another man enters the fray and tries to keep the brawling men apart.
One person who witnessed the incident told LeedsLive: ‘There were five cars involved all behind one another at the traffic lights.
‘One guy was a lot worse off than the rest. He had three of them kicking his face at one point.
‘Another car, not involved in the incident, had a brick land on its bonnet. It was dented and scratched.
The men are separated by another who holds his arms out to stop them fighting each other
‘It was literally on the line of the traffic lights. Their silver Corsa and gold Toyota Yaris were blocking the cars from passing, then as other cars pulled up they blocked the opposite side of the road.
