Collision between horse cart and car caught on camera
The footage was taken close to the Seagoe Hotel around 3pm and shows the moment the cart and a car came into contact and the motorist’s quick manoeuvre in an effort to stop the cart travelling on. The cart had been part of what was described as a ‘convoy’.
According to a witness: “The convoy came down the Garvaghy Road then turned towards the hospital, seemed to be young children mainly riding but i noticed a few men who were riding and drinking beer, at the same time these two guys hit a man’s car so I started to record then I captured a young girl hitting another car.
“The driver then drove in front of the horse and got out and tried to stop the girl from riding away.”
