WATCH: Close call on Waterford road as car attempts overtaking manoeuvre

Dash-cam footage of the incident has circulated widely on social media

There was a close call on a County Waterford road in recent days after a car attempted a double overtake manoeuvre.

Footage of the incident, which occurred on the Ring Road in Tramore, has circulated widely on social media.

The dashcam footage shows a car overtaking a slow moving construction vehicle, with the newly implemented Active Travel scheme to the left.

Having overtaken the digger, the car with the dashcam is then overtaken by another vehicle, which seemingly overtook both the digger and dashcam car in a single manoeuvre.

The video footage shows the overtaking car narrowly missing an oncoming lorry.

There were beeps from multiple vehicles after the close call.
