PSNI Release CCTV Footage Of Suspected Drink Driver
The PSNI have issued CCTV footage of a suspected drink driver crashing into another vehicle at a shopping centre in Bangor, Co Down.
The video shows the car speeding across the busy car park and smashing into another vehicle.
A PSNI spokesperson said: "We are not doing this to shock people or make you scared of the roads but to hopefully let you see places where you may well travel and have everyone give a little bit of extra thought when they are out and about. This piece of footage is from Bangor and involves a suspected drink driver.
We will continue to do our bit by carrying out speed checks, random breath testing, seizing uninsured vehicles and detecting drunk drivers but the safety of our roads is a collective responsibility. Take care and drive safely."
