No, there were a few people in the bus station to the right that seemed to know her.

For the child's sake you should report this to the Garda. perhaps a visit by them will give the parent something to consider....

I thought it was a puppet or something like them nodding head dogs for a mo.

Is the kid actully up on the parcel shelf or sitting in the boot. Either way pretty damn stupid.

Reg is visable in the video btw.

Gosh .. i have no camera in my car ... nearly every time, i am on M50, goin to work, I would have something to post on. Today Toyota jump in third line at the front of merc (taxi) ... i was behind that taxi, nearly caused accident in front of me.

Funny is that , that toyota driver realized, he cut the way of taxi, nearly caused accident, kept squeeze in the line, causing taxi hard brake , to avoid accident. and all in 110 "ish" km/h speeds.

I'm the same, everyday i'm faced with near misses. I might try out the iphone app first if i can find my old sat nav mount then get a decent cam.

Most of my near misses happen when people don't use the lanes on a roundabout and cut you off

Ive just had a shocking experience with a driver getting out of his car and trying to open my own car door..

Video on way

Basically, went into the left lane didn't see him indicate until last minute car pillar was blocking. stopped allowed him out.

He stuck his fingers up at me which u can see then jammed on his brakes and got out of his car then attempted to open my car

Excuse the language and yes I did pull out in front of the mondeo but I wasn't waiting around and u can hear me apologise.

what do use think

Kinda scary, but I'd say it was a close one to have a head on crash.

Sorry you had to go through that but what happened afterwards ? Looks like you sped past him and almost caused another crash yourself !! :eek:
(edit - just saw that you apologised to the guy you pulled out in front of, I had the audio switched off, fair play to you for apologising)

Are you a taxi driver? I see the little cards on the dash ..... (just curious as I am being nosey :P)

Did the driver chase after you ??

Why were his lights flashing like that? Was it an undercover Garda car?

of course I went past I wasn't waiting around LOL.. Had to chance it or else god knows what. Had a girl passenger in the car

You can hear him trying to open the drivers door in the video

Ye im a taxi driver well spotted

Ciaran, Ive no idea why his lights were like that. I presume it was the video.

Kenny Logins · 25-03-2013 05:20PM

Scary alright, he knew what he was doing too blocking you from passing on his left.

The new led lights just flash when caught on camera - don't see it with naked eye. Next time when top gear are doing all the fancy slow-mo stuff you'll see a similar effect.

Al Capwned · 25-03-2013 05:24PM

Yer man was a twit, tbh.

Yeah you made a bit of a mistake in pulling out in front of the mondeo, but i wouldn't have been hanging around either....
Done right to apologise to mondeo driver though.

I don't think he was intentionally blocking, he just didn't bother his ass checking for traffic coming from the lane he was pulling into.

In summary he is a f*cking dickhead!

You had to make an accident, and it would be his fault, as he had let you go, and then move in to lane.

Well, would you not report to Garda ? I would consider it as attempt of hijacking your car. get that fecker with Gards, and ask him what did he want ? It is not normal, if somebody jumps out of car, and trying open doors.

Yes I am very tempted to report this to the guards but feel it could be a waste of time

well, such kind behavior is unacceptable. it probably coming from Russians. has to be stopped. , a specially if he nearly caused an accident, and then jumping out from car.

p.s. maybe he wanted tell you," thanks mister, you didnt hit my car "

Doubt it.

aman23 · 25-03-2013 05:48PM

What a scumbag! fair play to you, for not losing your cool. but i think it is well worth reporting him to the guards. he might pick on some little old dear the next time!

cats.life · 25-03-2013 06:39PM

ohhh op did he get your reg when ya ''left '' .he could report you just when he didnt get any satisfaction as in he didnt get chance to rant and rave at you, he could be under cover cop but wouldnt he have blue lights as well.
