TO Massachusetts mother of two was seriously injured after a man pulled her out of her car and hit her head-on during a road rage attack caught on video following a minor fender bender.

Hailea Soares, 31, was driving in Attleboro, Massachusetts, around 9 a.m. Friday when she rear-ended the driver in front of her, who had stopped suddenly, according to WHDH-TV News.

“He kept slamming on the brakes and then when we got to the intersection, he ran a light and was in front of me,” Soares told the outlet. “As soon as we passed, we didn’t even make it across and he slammed on the brakes, so I hit him.”

“I was just being a jerk… along the way,” he said in a tone interview with ABC-TV News. “I don’t know if he was having a bad day. I don’t know what it was, but if that’s the kind of person he is, I don’t think he belongs in the society of the rest of us.”

A GoFundMe initiative for Soares’ medical expenses had raised nearly $29,000 as of Tuesday afternoon.
