In the images captured by a dashboard camera, you can see how the driver of a car goes in the opposite direction, apparently in an overtaking, ignoring the fact that a vehicle is coming in front that is driving normally. To avoid a frontal impact, the driver traveling in the other direction enters, in turn, the other direction of travel, managing to avoid an accident that could have dramatic consequences.

“God protect him” commented, on social networks, the one who posted the images.

The policemen who watched the film remember that they monitor not only the roads, but also the online environment and they identified and sanctioned the reckless driver on the grounds that he endangered the traffic.

According to the quoted source, the images were captured on DN 17, between the town of Prisaca Dornei and the municipality of Câmpulung Moldovenesc, towards the municipality of Vatra Dornei.
