Dashcam captures the moment a car is flipped on it's roof

Despite being shunted from behind by a van - and then aiding the other stricken driver in his overturned car - Christopher Dye was charged after allegedly remonstrating with the man who caused the accident. The three-vehicle accident occurred on May 12 last year, on the M62 near junction 22. Mr Dye’s car was bumped from behind by a tailgating van, which then hit a blue Peugeot, which flipped on its roof and skidded down the carriageway, passing Mr Dye’s car. Much of the incident – including the supposed altercation with the van driver - was captured on Mr Dye’s own dashcam. This dashcam footage was used to bring a charge of driving without due consideration for other road users – a legal catchall for a number offences, including road rage, tailgating and lane hogging – against Mr Dye. However, on Tuesday at Bury Magistrates’ Court, the case against the 27-year-old was dropped after the prosecution were unable to provide any evidence that Mr Dye had inconvenienced the rogue van driver, and Mr Dye walked free.
