The attack caused the 50-year-old victim to fall under a passing truck. He died at the scene.

Police say the men got into a dispute over a traffic incident.

Both stopped their cars on the Pacific Motorway on-ramp at Eight Miles Plains, and got into a fight as they stood between the two vehicles.

It’s alleged the younger man attacked the older driver, causing him to fall into the truck’s path.

The 36-year-old will front the Brisbane Magistrates Court on Wednesday.
