Driver braked deliberately in front of me, says nun

A missionary nun driving near Carrigaline, Co Cork, on a Sunday morning was strongly of the view that a car slammed on the brakes deliberately and without warning in order to force her to crash into the back of it.

A witness who arrived on the scene saw three or four people in the car that was struck, rubbing their necks as soon as it happened.

Lucyna Wisnioska, of the St Peter Claver Missionary sisters in Terenure, Dublin, told Cork District Court that she was driving towards Cork City when the collision happened on a straight stretch at around 11.30am on May 7, 2017.
