Georgia — where driving too carefully can get you a machete to the face.

Cellphone video posted online Tuesday shows a road rager from the Peach State attacking another driver with a machete after they reportedly turned too slowly into a gas station.

The person who was attacked spoke to Channel 2 Action News about the Saturday night incident — and how he managed to escape with just minor cuts on his finger, wrist and back.

“It could’ve been half of my face,” said the victim, who asked toonly be identified as Chris.  “I could’ve lost my life over that.”

The alleged road rager, Anthony Williams, 33, of Marietta, had gotten upset with Chris because he was driving too carefully and slowly, the vic said.

Chris told Channel 2 that he pulled into a Texaco — with Williams honking behind him — after waiting briefly at a red light. The two men encountered each other moments later in the parking lot.

“It didn’t look like he wanted to kill him,” said the person who filmed the attack video. “But it did look like he wanted to hurt him bad.”

Chris managed to get Williams’ license plate number and reported him to police, according to Channel 2.

Cops booked him into the Cobb jail on aggravated assault and battery charges. He was reportedly still behind bars Tuesday without bond.
