An Australian tourist was allegedly assaulted in his car while making a U-turn in Buckingham St, Arrowtown, on Friday.
The 50-year-old victim had accidentally entered the one-way street in the wrong direction about 8.45pm.
He was turning his vehicle around, when a 56-year-old Queenstown man kicked the side of it before allegedly assaulting the driver.
The man, who was charged with assault, threatening behaviour and intentional damage, will appear in the Queenstown District Court in September.
