Terrifying footage as motorbike and car collide in Finglas, Dublin sending driver flying into the air

This is the terrifying moment that a motorbike and a car collided on a busy north Dublin road over the weekend.

The collision - which took place in Finglas on Saturday shortly before 1pm - saw the motorcyclist being sent flying into the air, landing metres from where the impact happened.

Dublin Live's exclusive video begins by showing the blue car involved in the collision driving over a speed ramp and indicating to turn right into what appears to be a car park.

As the car begins to turn, it stops and the motorbike suddenly collides with the vehicle.

The driver of the bike is flung into the air following the impact and lands a couple of metres away from where the crash takes place.

The driver of the car gets out immediately and goes to the aid of the cyclist as does another driver in a different car.

Footage shows the motorcyclist lying still on the ground as several members of the public surround the cyclist.

Dublin Live understands that the motorcyclist suffered a broken pelvis from the crash.

A spokesman for Gardai confirmed that crash saying: "Gardaí attended the scene of a Road Traffic Collison in Finglas, Dublin 11 on 23 November 2019 at approximately 12pm. Investigations are ongoing."
