Three arrests have been made after two cars collided into each twice on the same road.
Police launched an investigation following the road rage incident between the two motorists in Folkestone yesterday.
The first crash happened on the roundabout near to Churchill Avenue and Cherry Garden Avenue at around 5.30pm when the two cars collided with one another.
Both cars then continued along Cherry Garden Avenue for a short amount of time when they are reported to have collided for a second time near to traffic lights.
This resulted in one of the cars spinning in the road.
The driver of that car - who suffered a minor graze to his arm - reported he then got out his vehicle and confronted the driver of the second car.
There was an exchange between the two drivers, before the second driver left the area.
Police were called to the scene and spoke with the remaining driver.
Now, following initial enquiries, a 16-year-old boy and two men aged 25 and 30 were today arrested in connection with the incident.
An appeal has also been launched by detectives who want to speak to any witnesses.
A police spokesman said: "Enquiries are ongoing to establish the circumstances of this incident and detectives would like to hear from any witnesses who saw the cars in the lead-up to the collisions or during the verbal exchange."
Anyone with information should call police on 01843 222289, quoting reference 08-1294, or to remain anonymous Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
