The truck driver, however, barely had time to react when the other driver started screaming about being in a hurry and attacked him with a two-foot long replica of a samurai sword.
According to the media outlet, the improvised weapon apparently wasn’t sharp enough to inflict slashing wounds, but the truck driver did end up with a busted knee before his opponent hurriedly fled the scene in his car.
