Dash cam videos thread 3.4 (embedded car dash-cams only)

Apologies for crappy rear cam footage - it wasn't me who put that blurry window tint over there. Front is way clearer though. My fault that rear cam's date/time is way off - too lazy to set it properly.

Swinford Bypass, last Thursday.

Jesus. What an idiot. Good reactions from you but only blessed that there was nothing coming towards you.

100% their fault and well done avoiding it.

Looks like you just happened to be in the other car's blind spot so the Caddy didnt see you, but they shouldve done another check when entering and couldve stopped if they just did another check your direction.

Wow, that van was heavily loaded also by the looks of the rear arches sitting on the wheels so lucky to be alive indeed. Did you capture the reg in the uncompressed video? The YouTube version looks like one of those greyed out plates that are seriously difficult to read. Worth reporting as that driver needs talking to.

And turning around to catch the idiot. Friend of mine died on bike when

some clown done that.

To put it another way, you saved his life, at grave risk to your own.

Report it - it's a common van, but there can't be that many White Transit Connects in that area. The Gardai would should be checking traffic camera ANPR databases, and putting out an alert for that description.

• Aftermarket Headlights ✔
• LED Foglights on ✔
• Wind Deflectors ✔
• Illegal reg plate ✔
• Low profile tyres, on a van ✔
• Looks to be modified suspension ✔

Do you think they'd bother pursuing this one? I also (or rather most importantly) have to admit I hesitate to report it as I prefer not to appear in court, even as a witness.

Anyway, spotted the guy again this morning, while he drove into Sligo town, and he spotted me too. Young(ish) male, approx 20s or 30s I'd say. Number plate black-on-grey, lettering significantly smaller and thinner than legal. Only able to read 141-C-56xx (58xx? 59xx?). Looked up 5800 to 5930, as a result I am now banned from all 3 lookup pages! LOL! :-D

That rear window tint is garbage. Need to rid of it asap.

Fog lights on, grey plates, huge alloys and lowered suspension. Definately the same guy - his face when he spotted me showed that clearly. :-D

I was tempted, but had other things to do elsewhere and didn't want to arrive late. But it looks like he travels Ballymote-Sligo frequently, so it's just a matter of time. 8-)

Thank you! Much appreciated!
