The court was told Mr Flynn was travelling far too close to his vehicle and ploughed into the back, and the assault then took place.
Miss Magill said: “He says he just lost his temper completely and very much regrets it.”
The Honorary Recorder of Preston, Judge Mark Brown, ordered a pre sentence report on Davies, who has no previous convictions.
His sentence will now take place on February 21, and he was given unconditional bail.
