This isn’t pretty…
The Next Gear’s Bob Flavin was passing through Portlaoise earlier today on the Dublin Road, just outside Portlaoise Hospital, when he saw this scene of automotive carnage.

Speaking about the crash to JOE, Bob said: “The driver was clipped on the rear by a car coming out of the Applegreen, which pushed her off course. The driver walked to the ambulance.”
We’re just glad the bus stop wasn’t full of people heading into town.
Here’s a look at the rear of the car following the accident.
And the bus stop now…
