I don't think the intention was to ram them, rather they pulled across the path of the following vehicle

Yeah, it looked like they swerved to stop the police car from passing and boxing them in.
The police appeared to be trying to place cars all around them to force a controlled stop.

The big question is how long were you in the queue for and did they make the right decision to just take an alternative route?

I'd say I was there about 3 minutes, not a single car near the brigde had moved in that time. Don't worry, I turned round when it was safe to do so, unlike those gombeens

It depends on what way they were going, that's the turn to Leixlip, most likely trying to get to the M50, I'd imagine the town was a bottleneck already... I went back and took a few turns until I got to the strawberry beds, then continued on my merry way

Beacon junction..

That F-ing junction is the bane of my life.
They need to remove the amber filter as the "filterers" just block up all the space meaning the approach that you took is a car park during rush hour.

Add to that the assholes who zoom up the outside lane and then wedge their way back in at the top and it boils my pi$$ on a daily basis.

I will never understand why people let these dickheads back in day after day.

Holy christ, how close was that - watched it 6 times, what a fecking idiot

inforfun · 04-07-2018 07:16AM

Last year i dropped this one here.
That person was caught soon after and the license plate of this one is clearly visible too.
So only a matter of time this idiot will be visited by the police who will bring scissors.

It doesn't look as severe here but I was climbing up a bit of a hill and was in a long right hand turn. It really wasn't the best place for a car to overtake a tractor. It was closer than the video makes it look.

Some pretty solid work here

So for once the camera came in useful other than mild amusement.

Back story: Tourists in the white Kia I think it was (Rental) they beeped as they thought Merc was going to bump them. As you can see Mr.Merc jumps out and starts shouting expletives but...... bloody automatics :eek:

Damage to rental was minimal no cracks but a fair size paint rub and the car had as new miles.

Mods I'm not up on the whole blur editing so if there's to much info reg/faces feel free to delete.

Did you contact the Gardai or get to speak to the Tourist at all?

Regular occurrence at that spot. How there hasn't been a very bad accident already I don't know. I drive that road very regularly and can think of similar happening at least 3 times in the last couple of months.

Can verify that road is dreadful and i'm always cautious when passing in the direction the OP went. Very easy to accidentally go straight through the stop signs.

Really should have a few 'prepare to stop' signs and 'stop in xx meters' etc. on it.

Looks like Norn Iron - would be PSNI I'd imagine

PSNI?

This video is about 2 minutes longer than it needs to be (so plenty of opportunity to find fault in my driving

), but I seen this chap on my travels. Can hear the siren come on at 1:55.

Not sure if perhaps a Garda wannabe, Chief Fire Officer (legit use of blues I believe) or impatient rule breaker? Passed the reg onto the local station anyway and they can figure it out. 'Someone acting the bollocks' is the opinion I formed (rightly or wrongly).

Well you know what I mean. Whatever local policing authority it is. Would say the tourist would be very relieved to hear that someone came forward with dash cam to show they weren't at fault.

I'd say the car hire company felt $o $orry to $ee the damage.

Yes

No but he did.

Also downloaded the footage to flash drive and gave it to him as he didn't have any memory stick etc.

To be honest I didn't even notice it happening as I was looking for sterling.

What I'd like to know is who broke the zebra crossing?

I believe the bus was moving into the hard shoulder to give you the opportunity to overtake whilst it built up speed.

But at least they still have the pictures

No one dead or injured which is rather fortunate i guess.
