Narrow escape for walkers on Cork street after car flips onto roof

Residents and business owners call for one-way system on busy Blarney St after 'frightening' incident

The car was being driven towards the city when it appears it made contact with a parked car and flipped onto its roof, coming to a rest on the footpath on the southern side of Blarney St.

A shocking near miss on a narrow Cork City street has prompted calls for urgent safety works or a one-way system trial to save lives.

Residents and business owners at the city end of Blarney St pleaded with City Hall to act fast after pedestrians cheated death in the car flip incident.
