Hooded figure spooks drivers in Australia

Dashcam footage shows a creepy figure walk out on to the road and lunge at a car as it passes by.
The driver had been traveling along Lake Road near Kearsley at around 1:30am when he came across a vehicle blocking a nearby intersection with a hooded figure standing next to it.

The footage recorded by the driver's dashcam shows the mysterious individual walking out on to the road and stopping in the middle of the lane with his head looking down at the ground.

The chilling encounter then concludes with the assailant lunging towards the car screaming at the top of his lungs while the driver puts his foot down and speeds off as fast as possible.
To make matters worse the driver's wife, who had been travelling just one minute behind in a separate vehicle, couldn't be reached on her phone and subsequently encountered the same hooded figure on the road who lunged at her car in just the same way.

"We still don't know what he was trying to do, whether he was trying to rob us, was he trying to take our car or was he trying to hurt us," she said. "It has really shaken us up."

The dashcam footage of the incident can be viewed below.
