This is the moment a suspected drink-driver going the wrong way down a busy road repeatedly rams a silver van which is forced to stop in front of him.
Video taken by witnesses in the city of Liuzhou, which is in South China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, shows the SUV owner driving head-on into the Chinese-made Wuling van.
Van driver Mr Huang remains inside his vehicle as the as yet unidentified SUV owner reverses and rams the light goods vehicle over and over again.
The video shows the van crashed into no fewer than six times, with police saying the suspect slammed into Mr Huang’s vehicle a total of seven times.

The incident on Liuzhou’s Qianfeng Road ends with the SUV owner walking over to Mr Huang’s van and saying a few words before turning to his own car, getting some of his things and simply walking away.
Smoke can be seen coming out of the SUV, with images from the aftermath showing its airbags having been deployed during the repeated collisions.
The suspect reportedly left his keys in the car too.
Mr Huang told police he spotted the SUV driving along the centre of the road and then driving the wrong way.
It stopped in front of him but then suddenly rammed his van before any words had between exchanged between the two motorists.
He recalled: “I don’t know who he is or why he crashed into me.
“He smelt of alcohol and appeared to be suggesting that I was blocking his path.”
Liuzhou police said they had identified the SUV driver and summoned him.
However, he has yet to turn himself in.
