This is the shocking moment tourists were seen fighting in the middle of busy traffic in Indonesia.

Footage shows the furious holidaymakers blocking oncoming cars as they squared up at the busy Uluwatu-Pecatu Highway in Bali on November 28.

One shirtless tourist flung a motorcycle helmet and almost hit a motorist near the roadside. The foreigners later left the area and normal traffic resumed.

Onlookers said they did not know the cause of the row. They claimed such fights were 'common' in Bali.

The alteration is one of the latest incidents involving misbehaving tourists on the bustling holiday island in Indonesia.

Officials have even taken steps to reign in the chaos following complaints from police and residents about tourists disrespecting the culture, violating traffic rules, committing crimes and behaving badly in public.
