A woman who shouted abuse at Nigel Farage from her car immediately crashed into the vehicle in front after taking her eyes off the road.
The incident took place while the Reform UK leader was campaigning in Clacton, Essex, and was captured on video by his campaign team.
As she drove past, the woman wound down her window and shouted “wanker” at Farage before continuing down the road.
Seconds later, she failed to notice traffic had stopped at a red light and rear-ended the car in front of her.
Farage watched the incident unfold before quipping: “She won’t be doing that again in a hurry.”
The Reform UK leader later described the collision as “instant karma.”

The incident comes amid heightened security concerns surrounding Farage and Reform UK.
Farage is currently campaigning in the Clacton by-election, which was triggered after he resigned his parliamentary seat to seek a fresh mandate from voters.
He has said he receives hundreds of threats each month from left-wing activist, while the party has increased security following the murder of former Conservative minister and Reform UK spokeswoman Ann Widdecombe.
A 28-year-old man is accused of killing Widdecombe after striking her 21 times on the head with a hammer.

He is alleged to have driven from his home in Rotherham, entered the bungalow through the front door, remained inside for around two minutes and then left with Widdecombe’s wallet.
Widdecombe was discovered the following morning by her gardener, lying on the kitchen floor of her home. Emergency services pronounced her dead at the scene.
