Women will be women, truckers will be truckers, anywhere in the world...
Police had to be called in when a truck driver and a female motorist had a stand off that lasted for half an HOUR.
The woman accused the lorry driver of hurling abuse at her in a half an hour when she tried to pass him on a narrow road.
Huge traffic queues started forming as Helen Martin, the woman and the other driver argued, with neither willing to move.
Helen Martin, who took photos of the stand-off from her car, was driving down the lane leading to a controversial biogas plant in Higher Fraddon, Cornwall when she met the huge lorry coming the other way.
She said: "There were cars behind me so I couldn't back up or get out of the way, but the driver of the lorry wouldn't move.
"When I tried to edge past him he screamed abuse and hurled four-letter words at me.
"I was feeling very threatened - he went absolutely mad and the language was terrible.
"It wasn't even whole sentences, just a load of abuse.
"I don't expect that sort of abuse from anyone."
Eventually traffic cops arrived at the scene to sort out the standoff, which started at 11.30am on Friday.
They had no where to go obviously.
