Cops confirmed that the incident took place on Pinkham Way in Southgate, North London at around 4pm on Wednesday.
However, the events leading up to it were not caught on camera.
The woman reportedly tried to force her way between two lorries to enter a dual carriageway, which led to the driver accusing her of crashing into multiple other vehicles as she did so.
Footage shows the woman getting out of the Mercedes and aggressively approaching the truck driver as he sits behind the wheel.
She attempts to open the door before telling the driver through the window: “Come on, open the door.”
She added: “Come on, open the door bro. Open the door.”
But when the driver refuses to open the door and continues to film her she grabs the door of the lorry and hauls herself up.
The truck driver was left speechless as she appeared to punch the wing mirror with her fist and smashed it to pieces.
The woman is seen in the video hitting the mirrors at least a dozen times.
The damage caused the plastic cases to detach from the mirror and glass to shatter on the floor.
Taking a piece of the debris, the woman then launches it at the driver’s window before storming back to her Mercedes which was left with the door open.
With the furious attack over, she drives away as shocked motorists watch on.
After managing to get in front of the lorry which was the target of the attack, she is said to have pulled up and got out to confront the driver.
A Metropolitan Police spokeswoman told The Sun: “Police are investigating a road rage incident on Pinkham Way, Southgate.
“It happened shortly after 16:00hrs on Wednesday, 30 October when a woman reportedly confronted a lorry driver before damaging the vehicles wing mirror.
“No arrests have been made.
