Police seek driver who sped wrong way down hard shoulder

Police are seeking the driver of a car captured on camera driving on the wrong side of the road on the hard shoulder in the Ballymoney area.

The PSNI has made a direct appeal to the driver to come forward and also appealed to the public to help them identify the person in question after they obtained footage of the vehicle’s movements last week.

The blue car, possibly a BMW, was being driven along the hard shoulder on the wrong side of the Ballybogey Road towards oncoming traffic on Thursday 27 June at around 8am.

Sergeant Robert Ennis said: “Had this car struck a vehicle, it could have had catastrophic consequences and I would urge the driver of this vehicle to come forward to us.

“I am also appealing to anyone who was travelling on the Ballybogey Road around this time on Thursday and saw this vehicle, or who may have captured this incident on their dash cam to contact us.

“If you can help us identify the driver please call police in Coleraine on the non emergency number 101, quoting reference number 2423 of 28/6/19.”
