A man has died after being struck and dragged about 100 metres by a ute during an alleged road rage attack west of Sydney, with the driver yet to be arrested.

Emergency services were called to Jersey Road in Blackett about 8.45am to find a 27-year-old man critically injured.

CCTV showed the man, who was dressed in hi-vis, appearing to be dragged alongside the ute before the vehicle left the scene.

Paramedics attempted to treat the man but he died of his injuries.

Inspector Shane Ranee told reporters investigations are in its early stages but police believe the incident to be road rage-related.

"Apparently the victim had gotten out of the vehicle after being threatened by the car following him, and obviously words were said," Ranee said.

"It's devastating and bad for the victim's family."

Police have released CCTV of a white ute in an appeal for information to locate the driver.

The vehicle is described as having a metal tray, a black canopy and a black toolbox with metal racks on top.

"I appeal for the driver to please come forward and hand yourself into police because we will find you," Ranee said.

Anyone with dashcam footage or CCTV, or information about the attack is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
