A female driver's been punched in the face by a motorcyclist during a road rage incident in Poole.

It happened after the bike pulled alongside and possibly clipped her red Citroen Picasso's wing mirror - along Penn Hill Avenue at 6-30 last Thursday evening.

Words were exchanged and the biker hit the women through her open window, causing a 2 or 3 centimetre scratch to her forehead.
